WWHHOO SSHHOOUULLDD IINNVVEESSTT

You should consider this investment if you want:

• to own a defined portfolio of stocks.

• to pursue a long-term, growth-orientedinvestment strategy that includes invest-ment in subsequent portfolios, if available.

• the potential for capital appreciation.

You should not consider this investment if you:

• are uncomfortable with the risks of anunmanaged investment in common stocks.

• are uncomfortable with the trust’s strategy.

• seek current income or capital preservation.

FFEEEESS AANNDD EEXXPPEENNSSEESS

The amounts below are estimates of the direct andindirect expenses that you may incur based on a $10 unitprice. Actual expenses may vary.

Trustee fee & expenses 0.22% $2.17Supervisory, evaluation

and administration fees 0.10 1.00Total 0.32% $3.17

The initial sales fee is the difference between the totalsales fee (maximum of 1.85% of the unit offering price) andthe sum of the remaining deferred sales fee and the totalcreation and development fee. The deferred sales fee isfixed at $0.135 per unit and is paid in three monthlyinstallments beginning on March 20, 2018. The creationand development fee is fixed at $0.05 per unit and is paidat the end of the initial offering period (anticipated to beapproximately three months). When the public offeringprice per unit is less than or equal to $10, you will not payan initial sales fee. When the public offering price per unitis greater than $10 per unit, you will pay an initial sales fee.

EEXXAAMMPPLLEE

This example helps you compare the cost of this trustwith other unit trusts and mutual funds. In the example weassume that the expenses do not change and that the trust’sannual return is 5%. Your actual returns and expenses willvary. Based on these assumptions, you would pay theseexpenses for every $10,000 you invest in the trust:

1 year $2683 years $8225 years $1,40110 years $2,970

This example assumes that you continue to followthe trust strategy and roll your investment, including alldistributions, into a new series of the trust each year sub-ject to a sales charge of 1.85%.

The trust seeks to provide above average totalreturn. There is no assurance the trust will achieveits objective.

PPRRIINNCCIIPPAALL IINNVVEESSTTMMEENNTT SSTTRRAATTEEGGYY

The trust consists of stocks selected by Eugene E.Peroni of Peroni Portfolio Advisors, Inc. (the “PortfolioConsultant”) through application of his proprietarymethod of technical analysis, the Peroni Method®, his-torical quantitative analysis and fundamental analysis.Mr. Peroni initially screened stocks based on the fol-lowing criteria:

• companies with a longer-term history of pay-ing dividends with special consideration tothose companies that have historicallyincreased their dividends;

• companies with current annual dividendyields of 2.5% or higher;

• companies with cash flows that appear suffi-cient for such company to continue to paydividends; and

• companies with good longer-term earningsgrowth prospects.

Mr. Peroni narrowed this universe of stocksthrough application of the Peroni Method®. Fromthese stocks, Mr. Peroni selected a final portfolio focus-ing on financial strength, prospects for revenue andearnings growth and sustainability of the dividend,among other criteria. Dividends may be an importantcomponent to total return.

Eugene E. Peroni Jr. has regularly published hisinsights in reports offering stock market forecasts andspecific stock recommendations for both short andlonger-term investments. Mr. Peroni regularly appearson CNBC, CBS MarketWatch, Nightly BusinessReport, Fox Business News and Bloomberg Radio,and has been quoted in publications such as The WallStreet Journal, The New York Times, U.S. News andWorld Report and Investors Business Daily.

Mr. Peroni began training in the field of technicalresearch at age 16 with his father, Eugene E. Peroni,Sr., who founded the Peroni Method® more than 50years ago. Mr. Peroni has over 40 years of experiencein his field. The Peroni Method® uses a bottom-upapproach, primarily emphasizing the technical meritsof individual stocks.

Mr. Peroni has a library of approximately 1,000hand-charted stocks that is the result of extensive tech-nical research and is regularly refreshed to include newopportunities gleaned through ticker tape analysis,news outlets, corporate developments and practicalobservations. Charts with attractive price architectureare noted and stocks are ranked and screened on a reg-ular basis. Historical characteristics are analyzed forprice and volume shifts and evaluations are made usingmoney flow and relative strength trends. Sector rela-tive strength is then determined by unbiased groupingsof attractive stocks. Portfolio construction progressesas weightings are determined by analyzing individualstock price behavior, economic factors, monetarytrends, psychological oscillators and investor psycholo-gy. Those stocks with the best technical characteristicsin strong or emerging leadership sectors are candidatesfor inclusion in the portfolio while also taking intoconsideration appropriate diversification.

The Peroni Method® is a bottom-up approach tostock selection that is primarily based on technicalanalysis. The methodology examines a stock’s pricearchitecture, accumulation and distribution trends andrelative strength patterns, among other more subtletrading characteristics. This information is partly gath-ered and analyzed through hand drawn point and fig-ure charts which have been a part of the methodologyfor over half a century. While the Peroni Method® isprimarily focused on the technical characteristics ofindividual stocks, economic, monetary, geopoliticaland sentiment factors at play in the market place arealso incorporated to identify leading stocks and sectors.

Technical analysis differs from fundamentalanalysis, which generally involves financial scrutiny ofthe issuing company and considers such factors asearnings projections, P/E ratios, cash flow and otherbalance sheet data. The Peroni Method® may be an

investment alternative to fundamental analysis. Mr.Peroni believes that technical factors can help identifyindustry sector relative strength patterns that may playan important role in investment success. The method-ology allows an unconstrained approach to stock selec-tion, spanning all market caps and investment styles,i.e. growth and value.

The Peroni Method® examines numerous techni-cal, psychological and fundamental data. The datamay include:

• a stock’s historical price architecture

• net money flow trends in individual stocks

• the relative behavior of a stock’s price per-formance compared to other stocks in thesame sector

• sentiment readings such as the volatility index

• fiscal and monetary factors

• geopolitical events and their impact on specif-ic sectors

HIMCO used a struc-tured quantitative approach combined with fun-damental oversight. HIMCO’s quantitativeapproach sought to identify companies withinvarious industry sectors possessing attractive fun-damentals, such as solid balance sheets, high qual-ity earnings and attractive growth prospects.HIMCO reviewed final selections for the trust’sportfolio to assess the impact of recent events(including management issues, legal proceedingsand future mergers or acquisitions) on eachstock’s prospects.

The following table compares hypotheticalback-tested performance information for thestrategy employed by the trust and the actualperformance of the DJIASM in each of the yearslisted below (and as of the most recent month).These hypothetical back-tested returns do notguarantee and should not be used to predictfuture performance of the trust. Returns fromthe trust will differ from the hypothetical strate-gy returns for several reasons, including:

• total return figures shown do not reflectcommissions paid by the trust on the pur-chase of securities or taxes you will incur;

• strategy returns are for calendar years (andthrough the most recent month), whiletrusts begin and end on various dates;

• extraordinary market events that we havenot expected to be repeated and mayhave affected performance;

• the trust has a scheduled term longerthan one year;

• the trust may not be fully invested at alltimes or equally weighted in all securitiescomprising its strategy; and

• the trust often purchases or sells securitiesat prices different from the closing pricesused in buying and selling units.

You should note that the trust is notdesigned to parallel movements in any index, andit is not expected that it will do so. In fact, thetrust’s strategy underperformed its comparativeindex in certain years and we cannot guaranteethat the trust will outperform its related indexover the life of the trust or over consecutiverollover periods, if available.

Hypothetical back-tested performance is noguarantee of future results. Hypothetical back-tested performance of the Dow® Value TenStrategy securities (the “strategy securities”) ishypothetical (and does not represent any actualtrust), is shown for illustrative purposes only andis not intended to indicate the future perform-ance of any investment, including the trust. Thestrategy securities for a given year consist of thesecurities selected by applying the strategy as ofthe beginning of the period (and not the datethe trust actually sells units). The hypotheticalback-tested performance of the strategy securitiesfor 1 of the 45 periods shown are the result ofextraordinary market events and are not expect-ed to be repeated.

Securities are selected through application ofa strategy at a particular point in time and if asecurity which is a component of a strategy ismerged out of existence, de-listed or suffers asimilar fate during the period in which the strat-egy performance is being measured, such securi-ty will not be replaced by another security dur-ing that period. The strategy is not rebalancedduring each one year period and as a result thestocks used for determining hypothetical back-tested performance will not take into accountsubsequent changes to the indexes used as astarting point for the strategy.

Total return represents the sum of the changein market value of each group of securitiesbetween the first and last trading day of a periodplus the total dividends paid on each group ofsecurities during such period divided by the open-ing market value of each group of securities as ofthe first trading day of a period. Total return fig-ures shown above in the table assume that all divi-dends are reinvested semi-annually. Strategy fig-ures reflect the deduction of sales charges andexpenses but have not been reduced by estimated

brokerage commissions and other transactioncosts paid by the trust in acquiring securities orany taxes incurred by investors.

Hypothetical back-tested returns are hypo-thetical, meaning that they do not representactual trading, and, thus, may not reflect materialeconomic and market factors, such as liquidityconstraints, that may have had an impact onactual decision making. The hypothetical back-tested performance is the retroactive applicationof the strategy designed with the full benefit ofhindsight.

The trust’s strategy begins with the DJIASM.The DJIASM consists of 30 U.S. stocks chosen bythe editors of The Wall Street Journal as beingrepresentative of the broad market and ofAmerican industry. Changes in the componentstocks of the DJIASM are made entirely by the edi-tors of The Wall Street Journal without consultingthe companies, the stock exchange or any officialagency. For the sake of continuity, changes aremade rarely.

The trust seeks to provide above averagetotal return. There is no assurance the trust willachieve its objective.

PPRRIINNCCIIPPAALL IINNVVEESSTTMMEENNTT SSTTRRAATTEEGGYY

The trust seeks to achieve its objective byinvesting in a diversified portfolio of stocks ofcompanies organized in Europe selected byCyrus J. Lawrence LLC (the “PortfolioConsultant”). Portfolio Consultant sought toidentify stocks of companies exhibiting improvingand sustainable earnings supported by attractiverelative stock valuations. Companies selected forinclusion in the portfolio are expected by thePortfolio Consultant to be leaders in their respec-tive industry, dominant regionally and recognizedas either established or emerging global competi-tors. The trust’s “European Select” strategy has adual focus of targeting companies that will bepotential beneficiaries of global accelerating eco-nomic growth but also companies geared towardsa sustainable European recovery.

The trust’s portfolio was selected from aninvestment universe that includes all equities trad-ed on the recognized registered exchanges of theEuropean region. This list includes large, midand small capitalization stocks representing acomprehensive cross section of the Europeaneconomy. The trust was constructed using acombination of top-down (macro analysis) andbottom-up (individual stock selection) criteria.Starting with a country and industry matrix, theframework of the portfolio was aligned with thePortfolio Consultant’s macro economic outlookwhile capturing a cross-section of the Europeaninvestment universe. Once the framework was

identified, the trust’s portfolio was selectedthrough comprehensive quantitative screeningand qualitative validation. The screening processsought to identify stocks of companies organizedin Europe that exhibit superior characteristicsaccording to multiple factors broken down asgrowth, valuation and market measures. Stockswere selected based on evidence of superior rela-tive earnings growth expectations coupled withstrong balance sheets and the expectation of accel-erating shareholder returns either through increas-ing dividends and/or share buybacks.

Under normal circumstances, the trust willinvest at least 80% of its assets in stocks of com-panies organized in European countries.

The deferred sales feeis fixed at $0.135 per unit and is paid in three monthlyinstallments beginning on March 20, 2018. The creationand development fee is fixed at $0.05 per unit and is paidat the end of the initial offering period (anticipated to beapproximately three months). When the public offeringprice per unit is less than or equal to $10, you will not payan initial sales fee.

Notes to Portfolio

(1) Securities are represented by contracts to purchase securities. The value of each security is based on the evaluation of each security as of the closeof regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange on the business day prior to the trust’s inception date. Accounting Standards Codification 820,“Fair Value Measurements” establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about fair value measurements in financialstatements for the trust. The framework under the standard is comprised of a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use ofobservable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that maybe used to measure fair value:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the trust has the ability to access as of the meas-urement date.

Level 2: Significant observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in mar-kets that are not active, and other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. Certain securities tradedon non-U.S. exchanges may be valued using indications of fair value provided by an independent pricing service to reflect any significantmarket movements between the time the trust values such securities and the earlier closing of such non-U.S. markets. Such fair valuationsare categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect the trust’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would usein pricing an asset or liability.

The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing those securities.

Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment’s assigned level as described above.

The following table summarizes the trust’s investments as of the trust’s inception, based on inputs used to value them:

Level 1 Level 2 Level 3Common Stocks $ 153,426 $ - $ -

(2) 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 spon-sor and the cost of the securities to the trust) are $151,554 and $1,872, respectively.

(3) All investments are in securities issued by a foreign company.

Common stocks comprise 100.00% of the investments in the trust, broken down by country of organization as set forth below:

Denmark 2.37% France 24.14% Germany 21.77%Ireland 2.41% Jersey 2.38% Netherlands 12.51%Switzerland 9.70% United Kingdom 24.72%

The trust seeks to provide above average total return.There is no assurance the trust will achieve its objective.

PPRRIINNCCIIPPAALL IINNVVEESSTTMMEENNTT SSTTRRAATTEEGGYY

The trust invests in a portfolio of stocks of for-eign companies selected using a specialized dividend-oriented strategy that seeks above average total return.We* selected the portfolio as of November 7, 2017using the following strategy:

• We begin with the companies listed in the S&PADR Index. The S&P ADR Index is based on thenon-U.S. stocks comprising the S&P Global 1200Index. The S&P ADR Index is made up of thosecompanies from the S&P Global 1200 Index thatoffer either Level II or Level III AmericanDepositary Receipts (ADRs), global shares, or ordi-nary shares in the case of Canadian equities. TheS&P Global 1200 Index covers 30 countries andconsists of seven regional components.

• From the S&P ADR Index, we select the threesecurities with the highest dividend yields in eachof the nine Global Industry Classification Standard(GICS®) sectors other than the Financials andReal Estate sectors and the three securities with thehighest dividend yields in the Financials and RealEstate GICS® sectors combined. Effectively, afterSeptember 1, 2016 the strategy seeks to treat thenew Real Estate GICS® sector as if it was stillpositioned under the Financials GICS® sector (asit was prior to September 1, 2016).

• We select those 30 stocks for the trust’s portfolioin approximately equal weightings.

The eleven industry sectors used in the strategy arethe GICS® sectors published by S&P Dow JonesIndices and MSCI Inc. Please note that we appliedthe strategy to select the portfolio at a particular time.If we create additional units of the trust after the trust’sinception date, the trust will purchase the securitiesoriginally selected by applying the strategy. This istrue even if a later application of the strategy wouldhave resulted in the selection of different securities. In

addition, companies which, based on publicly availableinformation as of two business days prior to the dateof this prospectus, are the target of an announced busi-ness combination which we expect will happen withinsix months of the date of this prospectus have beenexcluded from the universe of securities from whichthe trust’s securities are selected.

The following table compares hypotheticalback-tested performance information for the strat-egy employed by the trust and the actual perform-ance of the Standard & Poor’s ADR Index and theStandard & Poor’s 500 Index in each of the yearslisted below (and as of the most recent monthend). These hypothetical back-tested returns donot guarantee and should not be used to predictfuture performance of the trust. Returns from thetrust will differ from the hypothetical strategyreturns for several reasons, including:

• total return figures shown do not reflectcommissions paid by the trust on the pur-chase of securities or taxes you will incur;

• strategy returns are for calendar years (andthrough the most recent month), whiletrusts begin and end on various dates;

• extraordinary market events that we havenot expected to be repeated and mayhave affected performance;

• the trust has a scheduled term longerthan one year;

• the trust may not be fully invested at alltimes or equally weighted in all securitiescomprising its strategy; and

• the trust often purchases or sells securitiesat prices different from the closing pricesused in buying and selling units.

You should note that the trust is notdesigned to parallel movements in any index, andit is not expected that it will do so. In fact, thetrust’s strategy underperformed its comparativeindexes in certain years and we cannot guaranteethat the trust will outperform any index over thelife of the trust or over consecutive rollover peri-ods, if available.

Hypothetical back-test-ed performance of the International High 30Strategy (the “strategy securities”) is hypothetical(and does not represent any actual trust), is shownfor illustrative purposes only and is not intended toindicate the future performance of any investment,including the trust.

performance is being measured, such security willnot be replaced by another security during thatperiod. The strategy is not rebalanced during eachone year period and as a result the securities usedfor determining hypothetical back-tested perform-ance will not take into account subsequentchanges to the indexes used as a starting point forthe strategy.

Prior to the market close on August 31, 2016,there were ten GICS® sectors and after the mar-ket close on August 31, 2016, a new Real EstateGICS® sector was added, elevating its positionfrom under the Financials GICS® sector, bring-ing the total number of GICS® sectors to eleven.Prior to August 31, 2016, the InternationalHigh 30 Strategy selected three securities from(after the application of certain screens) each ofthe then existing ten GICS® sectors. AfterAugust 31, 2016, the International High 30Strategy selects the three securities from each ofthe nine GICS® sectors other than the Financialsand Real Estate sectors and three additional secu-rities from the Financials and Real Estate GICS®

sectors combined (for a total of 30 securities) afterthe application of certain screens. The hypotheti-cal back-tested performance for 2016 and earlierare based on the International High 30 Strategywith ten GICS® sectors.

Total return represents the sum of the changein market value of each group of securities betweenthe first and last trading day of a period plus thetotal dividends paid on each group of stocks duringsuch period divided by the opening market valueof each group of stocks as of the first trading day ofa period. Total return figures shown above in thetable assume that all dividends are reinvested semi-annually. Strategy figures reflect the deduction ofsales charges and expenses but have not beenreduced by estimated brokerage commissions andother transaction costs paid by the trust in acquir-ing securities or any taxes incurred by investors.

Hypothetical back-tested returns are hypo-thetical, meaning that they do not representactual trading, and, thus, may not reflect materi-al economic and market factors, such as liquidityconstraints, that may have had an impact onactual decision making. The hypothetical back-tested performance is the retroactive applicationof the strategy designed with the full benefit ofhindsight.

The trust strategy is based on the S&P ADRIndex. The S&P ADR Index is designed to trackthe S&P 700 Index. The S&P ADR Index onlyincludes securities that can be traded and settled inthe U.S. The index is made up of those compa-nies from the S&P 700 Index that offer eitherLevel II or Level III ADRs, global shares, or ordi-nary shares in the case of Canadian equities.(Level II and III ADRs are listed on U.S. securitiesexchanges or Nasdaq and must comply with cer-tain Securities and Exchange Commission disclo-sure requirements.) The S&P 700 Index is a sub-set of the S&P Global 1200 Index, representingthe non-US segment of global equity markets. Itis the S&P Global 1200 Index excluding the S&P500 Index stocks. The S&P Global 1200 Index isa composite index, comprised of seven regionaland country headline indices, many of which arethe accepted leaders in their local markets. TheS&P Global 1200 Index covers 30 countries andconsists of seven regional components.

The indexes are unmanaged, not subject tofees, and not available for direct investment.

The strategy is derived from stocks containedin the S&P ADR Index. S&P Dow JonesIndices, a division of the S&P Global Inc., pub-lisher of the S&P ADR Index, is not affiliatedwith us and has not participated in creating thetrust or selecting the securities for the trust, norhave they reviewed or approved of any of theinformation contained herein.

The trust seeks to provide above average divi-dend income and lower volatility compared to thebroader U.S. equity market with capital apprecia-tion as a secondary objective. There is no assur-ance the trust will achieve its objective.

PPRRIINNCCIIPPAALL IINNVVEESSTTMMEENNTT SSTTRRAATTEEGGYY

The trust seeks to achieve its objective byinvesting in a portfolio primarily consisting ofcommon stocks of large capitalization companies(defined as companies with capitalizations withinthe collective range of the Russell 1000® andS&P 500 Indices as of the trust’s inception)selected by Hartford Investment ManagementCompany (“HIMCO”). In selecting the portfo-lio, HIMCO sought to achieve the lowest amountof expected volatility compared to the broad U.S.equity market over the life of the trust subject toa set of reasonable constraints related to qualityand dividend yield designed by HIMCO. Lowvolatility stocks tend to have lower risk profilesthan the equity market in general. Investing inlow volatility stocks may not protect the trustfrom market declines and may reduce the trust’sparticipation in market gains.

HIMCO used a structured quantitativeapproach for its stock selection focusing on threemain characteristics: minimum volatility, qualityand dividend yield. From a minimum volatilityperspective, the process sought to identify a port-folio of stocks with lower expected volatility thanthe broader U.S. equity market. This analysisconsidered a stock’s beta, as well as its idiosyncrat-ic risk determined by HIMCO. From a qualityperspective, stock selection focused on identifyingcompanies with attractive fundamentals focusing

on solid balance sheets, high quality earnings, andattractive growth prospects (e.g. margin expan-sion, asset quality, low leverage, etc.). This analy-sis also considered the impact of potential corpo-rate events that may alter a company’s future fun-damentals. Finally, from a dividend yield per-spective, the process focused on stocks of compa-nies with above average dividend yield. Finalstock selection was based primarily on the overallportfolio from the minimum volatility perspectivewith consideration of the quality and dividendyield perspectives. In selecting the trust’s portfo-lio, HIMCO also considered the portfolio’s sectorexposures relative to custom sector classificationsdefined by HIMCO (based on Russell Industryclassifications). The trust’s sector weightings mayvary significantly from the sector weightings ofthe Russell 1000® or S&P 500 Indices.

The deferred sales feeis fixed at $0.135 per unit and is paid in three monthlyinstallments beginning on March 20, 2018. The creationand development fee is fixed at $0.05 per unit and is paidat the end of the initial offering period (anticipated to beapproximately three months). When the public offeringprice per unit is less than or equal to $10, you will not payan initial sales fee. When the public offering price per unitis greater than $10 per unit, you will pay an initial sales fee.

The trust seeks to provide capital appreciation.There is no assurance the trust will achieve thisobjective.

PPRRIINNCCIIPPAALL IINNVVEESSTTMMEENNTT SSTTRRAATTEEGGYY

The trust seeks to provide capital appreciation byinvesting in a diversified portfolio of common stocksof companies involved in aspects of agriculture, energy,health care, precious metals, potable water, the devel-opment and maintenance of infrastructure systems, orother related areas that could benefit from the expand-ing economies of the 21st century. Eugene E. Peroni,Jr. of Peroni Portfolio Advisors, Inc. (the “PortfolioConsultant”) selects the trust’s portfolio through theapplication of his proprietary method of technicalanalysis, the Peroni Method®, with consideration ofinvestment opportunities.

The Peroni Method® is a bottom-up approach tostock selection that is primarily based on technicalanalysis. The methodology examines a stock’s pricearchitecture, accumulation and distribution trends andrelative strength patterns, among other more subtletrading characteristics. This information is partly gath-ered and analyzed through hand drawn point and fig-ure charts which have been a part of the methodologyfor over half a century. While the Peroni Method® isprimarily focused on the technical characteristics ofindividual stocks, economic, monetary, geopoliticaland sentiment factors at play in the market place arealso incorporated to identify leading stocks and sectors.

Technical analysis differs from fundamental analysis,which generally involves financial scrutiny of the issu-ing company and considers such factors as earningsprojections, P/E ratios, cash flow and other balancesheet data. The Peroni Method® may be an invest-ment alternative to fundamental analysis.

Mr. Peroni uses the Peroni Method® to select stocksthat he believes are best able to provide capital appreci-ation. He believes that technical factors can help iden-tify industry sector relative strength patterns that mayplay an important role in investment success. Themethodology allows an unconstrained approach to

stock selection, spanning all market caps and invest-ment styles, i.e. growth and value.

Eugene E. Peroni Jr. has regularly published hisinsights in reports offering stock market forecasts andspecific stock recommendations for both short andlonger-term investments. Mr. Peroni regularly appearson CNBC, CBS MarketWatch, Nightly BusinessReport, Fox Business News and Bloomberg Radio,and has been quoted in publications such as The WallStreet Journal, The New York Times, U.S. News andWorld Report and Investors Business Daily.

Mr. Peroni began training in the field of technicalresearch at age 16 with his father, Eugene E. Peroni,Sr., who founded the Peroni Method® more than 50years ago. Mr. Peroni has over 40 years of experiencein his field. The Peroni Method® uses a bottom-upapproach, primarily emphasizing the technical meritsof individual stocks.

Mr. Peroni has a library of approximately 1,000hand-charted stocks that is the result of extensive tech-nical research and is regularly refreshed to include newopportunities gleaned through ticker tape analysis,news outlets, corporate developments and practicalobservations. Charts with attractive price architectureare noted and stocks are ranked and screened on a reg-ular basis. Historical characteristics are analyzed forprice and volume shifts and evaluations are made usingmoney flow and relative strength trends. Sector rela-tive strength is then determined by unbiased groupingsof attractive stocks. Portfolio construction progressesas weightings are determined by analyzing individualstock price behavior, economic factors, monetarytrends, psychological oscillators and investor psycholo-gy. Those stocks with the best technical characteristicsin strong or emerging leadership sectors are candidatesfor inclusion in the portfolio while also taking intoconsideration appropriate diversification.

The Peroni Method® examines numerous techni-cal, psychological and fundamental data. The datamay include:

• a stock’s historical price architecture

• net money flow trends in individual stocks

The deferred sales feeis fixed at $0.135 per unit and is paid in three monthlyinstallments beginning on March 20, 2018. The creationand development fee is fixed at $0.05 per unit and is paidat the end of the initial offering period (anticipated to beapproximately three months). When the public offeringprice per unit is less than or equal to $10, you will not payan initial sales fee. When the public offering price per unitis greater than $10 per unit, you will pay an initial sales fee.

This example helps you compare the cost of this trustwith other unit trusts and mutual funds. In the example weassume that the expenses do not change and that the trust’sannual return is 5%. Your actual returns and expenses willvary. Based on these assumptions, you would pay theseexpenses for every $10,000 you invest in the trust:

1 year $2563 years $7875 years $1,34410 years $2,864

This example assumes that you continue to followthe trust strategy and roll your investment, including alldistributions, into a new series of the trust each year sub-ject to a sales charge of 1.85%.

The following table compares hypotheticalback-tested performance information for the strate-gy employed by the trust, the High 50® DividendStrategy, the International High 30 DividendStrategy, and the actual performance of the Standard& Poor’s 500 Index in each of the years listed (andas of the most recent month end). These hypotheti-cal returns do not guarantee and should not be usedto predict future performance of the trust. Returnsfrom the trust will differ from the hypotheticalback-tested strategy returns for several reasons,including:

• total return figures shown do not reflectcommissions paid by the trust on the pur-chase of securities or taxes you will incur;

• strategy returns are for calendar years (andthrough the most recent month), whiletrusts begin and end on various dates;

• extraordinary market events that we havenot expected to be repeated and may haveaffected performance;

• the trust has a scheduled term longer thanone year;

• the trust may not be fully invested at alltimes or equally weighted in all securitiescomprising its strategy; and

• the trust often purchases or sells securitiesat prices different from the closing pricesused in buying and selling units.

You should note that the trust is not designedto parallel movements in any index, and it is notexpected that it will do so. In fact, the trust’s strate-gy underperformed its comparative indexes in cer-tain years and we cannot guarantee that the trustwill outperform any index over the life of the trustor over consecutive rollover periods, if available.

Hypothetical back-tested performance is noguarantee of future results. Hypothetical back-test-ed performance of the trust strategy (the StrategicHigh 80 Dividend Strategy), High 50® DividendStrategy and International High 30 DividendStrategy securities (the “strategy securities”) is hypo-thetical (and does not represent any actual trust), isshown for illustrative purposes only and is notintended to indicate the future performance of anyinvestment, including the trust. The strategy securi-ties for a given year consist of the securities selectedby applying the strategy as of the beginning of theperiod (and not the date the trust actually sellsunits). The hypothetical back-tested past perform-ance of the Strategic High 80 Dividend Strategysecurities for 1 of the 15 periods shown are theresult of extraordinary market events and are notexpected to be repeated.

Securities are selected through application of astrategy at a particular point in time and if a securi-ty which is a component of a strategy is merged outof existence, de-listed or suffers a similar fate duringthe period in which the strategy performance isbeing measured, such security will not be replacedby another security during that period. The strategyis not rebalanced during each one year period and asa result the stocks used for determining hypotheticalback-tested performance will not take into accountsubsequent changes to the indexes used as a startingpoint for the strategy.

Prior to the market close on August 31, 2016,there were ten GICS® sectors and after the marketclose on August 31, 2016, a new Real Estate GICS®

sector was added, elevating its position from underthe Financials GICS® sector, bringing the totalnumber of GICS® sectors to eleven. Prior toAugust 31, 2016, the Strategic High 80 Strategyselected eight securities from (after the application ofcertain screens) each of the then existing ten GICS®

sectors. After August 31, 2016, the Strategic High80 Strategy selects eight securities from each of thenine GICS® sectors other than the Financials andReal Estate sectors and eight additional securities

from the Financials and Real Estate GICS® sectorscombined (for a total of 80 securities) after the appli-cation of certain screens. The hypothetical back-test-ed performance for 2016 and earlier are based on theStrategic High 80 Strategy with ten GICS® sectors.

Total return represents the sum of the change inmarket value of each group of securities between thefirst and last trading day of a period plus the totaldividends paid on each group of securities duringsuch period divided by the opening market value ofeach group of securities as of the first trading day ofa period. Total return shown in the table above fig-ures assume that all dividends are reinvested semi-annually. Strategy figures reflect the deduction ofsales charges and expenses but have not beenreduced by estimated brokerage commissions andother transaction costs paid by the trust in acquiringsecurities or any taxes incurred by investors.

Hypothetical back-tested returns are hypotheti-cal, meaning that they do not represent actual trad-ing, and, thus, may not reflect material economicand market factors, such as liquidity constraints,that may have had an impact on actual decisionmaking. The hypothetical performance is theretroactive application of the strategy designed withthe full benefit of hindsight.

The trust seeks to provide high current income withcapital appreciation as a secondary objective. There is noassurance the trust will achieve its objective.

PPRRIINNCCIIPPAALL IINNVVEESSTTMMEENNTT SSTTRRAATTEEGGYY

The trust seeks to provide high current income withcapital appreciation potential by investing in a portfolioprimarily consisting of common stock of closed-endinvestment companies (known as “closed-end funds”).The underlying funds may invest in a variety of income-producing securities issued by various types of foreignand/or U.S. issuers. Among other securities, these securi-ties may include corporate bonds, government bonds,corporate loans, convertible securities, preferred securitiesand equity securities. These securities may be ratedinvestment grade, below investment grade or unrated bymajor security rating agencies.

In selecting these closed-end funds, we* considered fac-tors such as historical returns, income potential, potentialfuture growth, portfolio diversification and advisor experi-ence. We use a disciplined investment methodology toselect the funds for inclusion in the trust. We begin byconstructing a universe of funds that have a stated invest-ment objective in line with the trust’s investment objectiveand that the fund advisor appears to be adhering to. Fromthis universe we select the final securities by utilizing amulti-factor approach based on the following factors:

• Dividend—The primary factor is an above average div-idend and we favor funds that have a history of a con-sistent and competitive dividend and that appear topossess the ability to keep the dividend level intact.

• Premium/Discount—We also favor funds that are trad-ing at a discount relative to their peers and relative totheir historic average.

• Performance—We also favor funds that have an aboveaverage history of performance based on net asset valuewhen compared to their peers and a relevant benchmark.

Approximately 35.05% of the portfolio consists offunds classified as “non-diversified” under the InvestmentCompany Act of 1940. These funds have the ability toinvest more than 5% of their assets in securities of a singleissuer which could reduce diversification. Under normalcircumstances, the trust will invest at least 80% of itsassets in closed-end investment companies.

PPRRIINNCCIIPPAALL RRIISSKKSS

As with all investments, you can lose money by invest-ing in this trust. The trust also might not perform as wellas you expect. This can happen for reasons such as these:

The trust and the underlying funds havemanagement and operating expenses. You will bearnot only your share of the trust’s expenses, but also theexpenses of the underlying funds.

The deferred sales fee is fixed at$0.135 per unit and is paid in three monthly installmentsbeginning March 20, 2018. The creation and developmentfee is fixed at $0.05 per unit and is paid at the end of theinitial offering period (anticipated to be approximately threemonths). When the public offering price per unit is lessthan or equal to $10, you will not pay an initial sales fee.When the public offering price per unit is greater than $10per unit, you will pay an initial sales fee. The trust willindirectly bear the management and operating expenses ofthe underlying closed-end funds. While the trust will notpay these expenses directly out of its assets, these expensesare shown in the trust’s annual operating expenses above toillustrate the impact of these expenses.

This example helps you compare the cost of this trustwith other unit trusts and mutual funds. In the example weassume that the expenses do not change and that the trust’sannual return is 5%. Your actual returns and expenses willvary. Based on these assumptions, you would pay theseexpenses for every $10,000 you invest in the trust:

HHOOWW TTOO BBUUYY UUNNIITTSS

You can buy units of a trust on any businessday the New York Stock Exchange is open bycontacting your financial professional. Unitprices are available daily on the Internet atwwwwww..AAAAMMlliivvee..ccoomm.. The public offering price ofunits includes:

• the net asset value per unit plus

• organization costs plus

• the sales fee.

The “net asset value per unit” is the value ofthe securities, cash and other assets in your trustreduced by the liabilities of your trust divided bythe total units or your trust outstanding. Weoften refer to the public offering price of units asthe “offer price” or “purchase price.” The offerprice will be effective for all orders received priorto the close of regular trading on the New YorkStock Exchange (normally 4:00 p.m. Easterntime). If we receive your order prior to the closeof regular trading on the New York StockExchange or authorized financial professionalsreceive your order prior to that time and properlytransmit the order to us by the time that we des-ignate, then you will receive the price computedon the date of receipt. If we receive your orderafter the close of regular trading on the New YorkStock Exchange, if authorized financial profes-sionals receive your order after that time or iforders are received by such persons and are nottransmitted to us by the time that we designate,then you will receive the price computed on thedate of the next determined offer price providedthat your order is received in a timely manner onthat date. It is the responsibility of the author-ized financial professional to transmit the orders

that they receive to us in a timely manner.Certain broker-dealers may charge a transactionor other fee for processing unit purchase orders.

VVaalluuee ooff tthhee SSeeccuurriittiieess.. We determine thevalue of the securities as of the close of regulartrading on the New York Stock Exchange on eachday that exchange is open. We generally deter-mine the value of securities using the last sale pricefor securities traded on a national securitiesexchange. For this purpose, the trustee providesus closing prices from a reporting service approvedby us. In some cases we will price a security basedon its fair value after considering appropriate fac-tors relevant to the value of the security. We willonly do this if a security is not principally tradedon a national securities exchange or if the marketquotes are unavailable or inappropriate.

We determined the initial prices of the secu-rities shown under each “Portfolio” section inthis prospectus as described above at the close ofregular trading on the New York Stock Exchangeon the business day before the date of thisprospectus. On the first day we sell units we willcompute the unit price as of the close of regulartrading on the New York Stock Exchange or thetime the registration statement filed with theSecurities and Exchange Commission becomeseffective, if later.

OOrrggaanniizzaattiioonn CCoossttss.. During the initial offer-ing period, part of the value of the units repre-sents an amount that will pay the costs of creatingyour trust. These costs include the costs ofpreparing the registration statement and legaldocuments, a portfolio consultant’s security selec-tion fee (if any), federal and state registration fees,the initial fees and expenses of the trustee and theinitial audit. Your trust will sell securities toreimburse us for these costs at the end of the ini-tial offering period or after six months, if earlier.

The value of your units will decline when yourtrust pays these costs.

SSaalleess FFeeee.. The maximum sales fee is shownunder “Fees and Expenses” for your trust and is1.85% of the public offering price per unit at thetime of purchase.

You pay a fee in connection with purchasingunits. We refer to this fee as the “transactionalsales fee”. The transactional sales fee has both aninitial and a deferred component. The transac-tional sales fee equals 1.35% of the public offer-ing price per unit based on a $10 public offeringprice per unit. The percentage amount of thetransactional sales fee is based on the unit priceon your trust’s inception date. The transactionalsales fee equals the difference between the totalsales fee and the creation and development fee.As a result, the percentage and dollar amount ofthe transactional sales fee will vary as the publicoffering price per unit varies. The transactionalsales fee does not include the creation and devel-opment fee which is described under “Fees andExpenses” for your trust.

You pay the initial sales fee, if any, at the timeyou buy units. The initial sales fee is the differ-ence between the total sales fee percentage (maxi-mum of 1.85% of the public offering price perunit) and the sum of the remaining fixed dollardeferred sales fee and the total fixed dollar cre-ation and development fee. The initial sales feewill be 0.00% of the public offering price per unitat a public offering price per unit of $10. If thepublic offering price per unit exceeds $10, youwill be charged an initial sales fee equal to the dif-ference between the total sales fee percentage(maximum of 1.85% of the public offering priceper unit) and the sum of the remaining fixed dol-lar deferred sales fee and total fixed dollar creationand development fee. The deferred sales fee is

fixed at $0.135 per unit. Your trust pays thedeferred sales fee in equal monthly installments asdescribed under “Fees and Expenses” for yourtrust. If you redeem or sell your units prior tocollection of the total deferred sales fee, you willpay any remaining deferred sales fee uponredemption or sale of your units.

Since the deferred sales fee and creation anddevelopment fee are fixed dollar amounts perunit, your trust must charge these amounts perunit regardless of any decrease in net asset value.As a result, if the public offering price per unitfalls to less than $10 (resulting in the maximumsales fee percentage being a dollar amount that isless than the combined fixed dollar amounts ofthe deferred sales fee and creation and develop-ment fee) your initial sales fee will be a creditequal to the amount by which these fixed dollarfees exceed the sales fee at the time you buy units.In such a situation, the value of securities per unitwould exceed the public offering price per unit bythe amount of the initial sales fee credit and thevalue of those securities will fluctuate, whichcould result in a benefit or detriment to unithold-ers that purchase units at that price. The initialsales fee credit is paid by the sponsor and is notpaid by the trust.

If you purchase units after the last deferredsales fee payment has been assessed, the secondarymarket sales fee is equal to 1.85% of the publicoffering price and does not include deferred pay-ments (i.e. unitholders who buy in the secondarymarket after collection of the deferred sales feesare not charged deferred sales fees).

MMiinniimmuumm PPuurrcchhaassee.. The minimum amountyou can purchase appears under “EssentialInformation” for your trust, but such amountsmay vary depending on your selling firm.

RReedduucciinngg YYoouurr SSaalleess FFeeee. We offer a varietyof ways for you to reduce the fee you pay. It isyour financial professional’s responsibility to alertus of any discount when you order units. Exceptas expressly provided herein, you may not com-bine discounts. Since the deferred sales fee andthe creation and development fee are fixed dollaramounts per unit, your trust must charge thesefees per unit regardless of any discounts.However, if you are eligible to receive a discountsuch that your total sales fee is less than the fixeddollar amounts of the deferred sales fee and thecreation and development fee, we will credit youthe difference between your total sales fee andthese fixed dollar fees at the time you buy units.

Fee Accounts. Investors may purchase unitsthrough registered investment advisers, certifiedfinancial planners or registered broker-dealerswho in each case either charge investor accounts(“Fee Accounts”) periodic fees for brokerageservices, financial planning, investment advisoryor asset management services, or provide suchservices in connection with an investmentaccount for which a comprehensive “wrap fee”charge (“Wrap Fee”) is imposed. You shouldconsult your financial advisor to determinewhether you can benefit from these accounts.To purchase units in these Fee Accounts, yourfinancial advisor must purchase units designatedwith one of the Fee Account CUSIP numbers, ifavailable. Please contact your financial advisorfor more information. If units are purchased fora Fee Account and the units are subject to aWrap Fee in such Fee Account (i.e., the trust is“Wrap Fee Eligible”) then investors may be eligi-ble to purchase units in these Fee Accounts thatare not subject to the transactional sales fee butwill be subject to the creation and developmentfee that is retained by the sponsor. For example,this table illustrates the sales fee you will pay as apercentage of the initial $10 public offering

price per unit (the percentage will vary with theunit price).

Initial sales fee 0.00%Deferred sales fee 0.00%

Transactional sales fee 0.00%Creation and development fee 0.50%

Total sales fee 0.50%

This discount applies only during the initialoffering period. Certain Fee Account investorsmay be assessed transaction or other fees on thepurchase and/or redemption of units by their bro-ker-dealer or other processing organizations forproviding certain transaction or account activities.We reserve the right to limit or deny purchases ofunits in Fee Accounts by investors or selling firmswhose frequent trading activity is determined tobe detrimental to a trust.

Employees. We waive the transactional salesfee for purchases made by officers, directors andemployees (and immediate family members) of thesponsor and its affiliates. These purchases are notsubject to the transactional sales fee but will besubject to the creation and development fee. Wealso waive a portion of the sales fee for purchasesmade by officers, directors and employees (andimmediate family members) of selling firms.These purchases are made at the public offeringprice per unit less the applicable regular dealerconcession. Immediate family members for thepurposes of this section include your spouse, chil-dren (including step-children) under the age of 21living in the same household, and parents (includ-ing step-parents). These discounts apply to initialoffering period and secondary market purchases.All employee discounts are subject to the policiesof the related selling firm, including but not lim-ited to, householding policies or limitations.Only officers, directors and employees (and theirimmediate family members) of selling firms that

Dividend Reinvestment Plan. We do notcharge any sales fee when you reinvest distribu-tions from your trust into additional units of yourtrust. This sales fee discount applies to initialoffering period and secondary market purchases.Since the deferred sales fee and the creation anddevelopment fee are fixed dollar amounts perunit, your trust must charge these fees per unitregardless of this discount. If you elect the distri-bution reinvestment plan, we will credit you withadditional units with a dollar value sufficient tocover the amount of any remaining deferred salesfee or creation and development fee that will becollected on such units at the time of reinvest-ment. The dollar value of these units will fluctu-ate over time.

You can sell or redeem your units on anybusiness day the New York Stock Exchange isopen by contacting your financial professional.Unit prices are available daily on the Internet atwwwwww..AAAAMMlliivvee..ccoomm or through your financial pro-fessional. The sale and redemption price of unitsis equal to the net asset value per unit, providedthat you will not pay any remaining creation anddevelopment fee or organization costs if you sellor redeem units during the initial offering period.The sale and redemption price is sometimesreferred to as the “liquidation price.” You payany remaining deferred sales fee when you sell orredeem your units. Certain broker-dealers may

charge a transaction or other fee for processingunit redemption or sale requests.

SSeelllliinngg UUnniittss. We may maintain a secondarymarket for units. This means that if you want tosell your units, we may buy them at the currentnet asset value, provided that you will not pay anyremaining creation and development fee or organ-ization costs if you sell units during the initialoffering period. We may then resell the units toother investors at the public offering price orredeem them for the redemption price. Our sec-ondary market repurchase price is the same as theredemption price. Certain broker-dealers mightalso maintain a secondary market in units. Youshould contact your financial professional for cur-rent repurchase prices to determine the best priceavailable. We may discontinue our secondarymarket at any time without notice. Even if we donot make a market, you will be able to redeemyour units with the trustee on any business dayfor the current redemption price.

The redemption price thatyou will receive for units is equal to the net assetvalue per unit, provided that you will not payany remaining creation and development fee ororganization costs if you redeem units during theinitial offering period. You will pay any remain-ing deferred sales fee at the time you redeemunits.

on the date of receipt. Redemption requestsreceived by the trustee after the close of regulartrading on the New York Stock Exchange,redemption requests received by authorizedfinancial professionals after that time or redemp-tion requests received by such persons that arenot transmitted to the trustee until after the timedesignated by the trustee, are priced based on thedate of the next determined redemption priceprovided they are received in a timely manner bythe trustee on such date. It is the responsibilityof authorized financial professionals to transmitredemption requests received by them to thetrustee so they will be received in a timely man-ner. If your request is not received in a timelymanner or is incomplete in any way, you willreceive the next net asset value computed afterthe trustee receives your completed request.

If you redeem your units, the trustee will gen-erally send you a payment for your units no laterthan seven days after it receives all necessary doc-umentation (this will usually only take two busi-ness days). The only time the trustee can delayyour payment is if the New York Stock Exchangeis closed (other than weekends or holidays), theSecurities and Exchange Commission determinesthat trading on that exchange is restricted or anemergency exists making sale or evaluation of thesecurities not reasonably practicable, and for anyother period that the Securities and ExchangeCommission permits.

You can request an in-kind distribution ofthe securities underlying your units if you tenderat least 2,500 units for redemption (or suchother amount as required by your financial pro-fessional’s firm). This option is generally avail-able only for securities traded and held in theUnited States. The trustee will make any in-kind distribution of securities by distributingapplicable securities in book entry form to the

account of your financial professional atDepository Trust Company. You will receivewhole shares of the applicable securities and cashequal to any fractional shares. You may notrequest this option in the last 30 days of yourtrust’s life. We may discontinue this optionupon sixty days notice.

RRoolllloovveerr OOppttiioonn.. Your trust’s strategy may bea long-term investment strategy designed to befollowed on an annual basis. You may achievemore consistent long-term investment results byfollowing the strategy. As part of the strategy, wecurrently intend to offer a subsequent series ofyour trust for a rollover when the current trustterminates. When your trust terminates you willhave the option to (1) participate in a rolloverand have your units reinvested into a subsequenttrust series through a cash rollover as described inthis section, (2) receive an in-kind distribution ofsecurities or (3) receive a cash distribution.

If you elect to participate in a rollover, yourunits will be redeemed on your trust’s terminationdate. As the redemption proceeds become avail-able, the proceeds (including dividends) will beinvested in a new trust series, if available, at thepublic offering price for the new trust. Thetrustee will attempt to sell securities to satisfy theredemption as quickly as practicable on the termi-nation date. We do not anticipate that the saleperiod will be longer than one day, however, cer-tain factors could affect the ability to sell thesecurities and could impact the length of the saleperiod. The liquidity of any security depends onthe daily trading volume of the security and theamount available for redemption and reinvest-ment on any day.

Wecannot guarantee that a rollover will avoid anynegative market price consequences resulting fromtrading large volumes of securities. Market pricetrends may make it advantageous to sell or buysecurities more quickly or more slowly than per-mitted by the trust procedures. We may, in oursole discretion, modify a rollover or stop creatingunits of any future trust at any time regardless ofwhether all proceeds of unitholders have beenreinvested in a rollover. We may decide not tooffer a rollover option upon sixty days notice.Cash which has not been reinvested in a rolloverwill be distributed to unitholders shortly after thetermination date. Rollover participants mayreceive taxable dividends or realize taxable capitalgains which are reinvested in connection with arollover but may not be entitled to a deduction forcapital losses due to the “wash sale” tax rules. Dueto the reinvestment in a subsequent trust, no cashwill be distributed to pay any taxes. See“Understanding Your Investment—Taxes”.

DDIISSTTRRIIBBUUTTIIOONNSS

DDiissttrriibbuuttiioonnss. Your trust generally pays distri-butions of its net investment income along withany excess capital on each distribution date tounitholders of record on the preceding recorddate. If your trust is a “grantor trust” for federaltax purposes, the trust will generally only make adistribution if the total cash held for distributionequals at least 0.1% of the trust’s net asset value asdetermined under the trust agreement. Therecord and distribution dates and the tax statusare shown under “Essential Information” in the“Investment Summary” section of this prospectusfor your trust. In some cases, your trust mightpay a special distribution if it holds an excessiveamount of cash pending distribution. For exam-

ple, this could happen as a result of a merger orsimilar transaction involving a company whosestock is in your portfolio. Your trust will alsogenerally make required distributions or distribu-tions to avoid imposition of tax at the end of eachyear if it is structured as a “regulated investmentcompany” for federal tax purposes. The amountof your distributions will vary from time to timeas companies change their dividends and otherincome distributions or trust expenses change.

When your trust receives dividends and otherincome distributions from a portfolio security, thetrustee credits such payments to the trust’saccounts. In an effort to make relatively regularincome distributions, if your trust is a “regulatedinvestment company” for tax purposes and makesmonthly distributions, your trust’s monthlyincome distribution is equal to one twelfth of theestimated net annual income distributions to bereceived by your trust after deduction of trustoperating expenses. Because a trust does notreceive income distributions from the portfoliosecurities at a constant rate throughout the year,the income distributions to unitholders from sucha trust may be more or less than the amount cred-ited to your trust accounts as of the record date.For the purpose of minimizing fluctuation inincome distributions, the trustee is authorized toadvance such amounts as may be necessary toprovide income distributions of approximatelyequal amounts. The trustee will be reimbursed,without interest, for any such advances fromavailable income received by a trust on the ensu-ing record date.

dividend declared by an issuer (or adding themost recent interim and final dividends declaredfor certain foreign issuers) and/or on scheduledincome payments. However, dividend conven-tions for certain companies and/or certain coun-tries differ from those typically used in the UnitedStates and in certain instances, dividends paid ordeclared over several years or other periods wereused to estimate annual distributions. Due to thisand various other factors, actual dividends andother income distributions received by your trustwill most likely differ from the most recent annu-alized dividends or scheduled income payments.The actual net annual distributions you willreceive will vary with changes in your trust’s feesand expenses, in dividends and other income dis-tributions received and with the sale of securities.

Strategy correlationrisk is the risk that your trust’s performance willnot sufficiently correspond with the hypotheticalback-tested performance of your trust’s investmentstrategy, if any. This risk applies to your trust ifthe “Investment Summary” section for your trustin this prospectus includes “Hypothetical Back-tested Performance Information.” This can hap-pen for reasons such as:

• the impracticability of owning each ofthe strategy stocks with the exact weight-ings at a given time,

• strategy performance is based on a calen-dar year strategy while trusts may be cre-ated at various times during the year andgenerally have 15 month terms,

• your trust may not be fully invested at alltimes, and

• trust fees and expenses.

Hypothetical back-tested performance is notactual past performance of this or any trust.Hypothetical back-tested performance is based onapplication of a trust’s investment strategy as of aparticular time.

CCrreeddiitt RRiisskk.. Credit risk is the risk that a bor-rower is unable to meet its obligation to pay prin-cipal or interest on a security held by a fund.This could cause the value of your units to falland may reduce the level of dividends a fund payswhich would reduce your income.

IInntteerreesstt RRaattee RRiisskk.. Interest rate risk is the riskthat the value of fixed income securities and simi-lar securities held by a fund will fall if interestrates increase. Bonds and other fixed incomesecurities typically fall in value when interest ratesrise and rise in value when interest rates fall.Securities with longer periods before maturity areoften more sensitive to interest rate changes. Thesecurities in your trust may be subject to a greaterrisk of rising interest rates than would normallybe the case due to the current period of historical-ly low rates.

among other things, (i) securities of eligible port-folio companies (generally, domestic companiesthat are not investment companies and that can-not have a class of securities listed on a nationalsecurities exchange or have securities that are mar-ginable that are purchased from that company ina private transaction), (ii) securities received bythe BDC in connection with its ownership ofsecurities of eligible portfolio companies, or (iii)cash, cash items, government securities, or highquality debt securities maturing one year or lessfrom the time of investment. BDCs’ ability togrow and their overall financial condition isimpacted significantly by their ability to raise cap-ital. In addition to raising capital through theissuance of common stock, BDCs may engage inborrowing. This may involve using revolvingcredit facilities, the securitization of loans throughseparate wholly-owned subsidiaries and issuing ofdebt and preferred securities. BDCs are lessrestricted than other closed-end funds as to theamount of debt they can have outstanding. Theseborrowings, also known as leverage, magnify thepotential for gain or loss on amounts investedand, accordingly, the risks associated with invest-ing in BDC securities. While the value of aBDC’s assets increases, leveraging would cause thenet value per share of BDC common stock toincrease more sharply than it would have hadsuch BDC not leveraged. However, if the valueof a BDC’s assets decreases, leveraging wouldcause net asset value to decline more sharply thanit otherwise would have had such BDC not lever-aged. In addition to decreasing the value of aBDC’s common stock, it could also adverselyimpact a BDC’s ability to make dividend pay-ments. A BDC’s credit rating may change overtime which could adversely affect their ability toobtain additional credit and/or increase the costof such borrowing. Agreements governing BDC’scredit facilities and related funding and serviceagreements may contain various covenants that

limit the BDC’s discretion in operating its busi-ness along with other limitations. Any defaultsmay restrict the BDC’s ability to manage assetssecuring related assets which may adverselyimpact the BDC’s liquidity and operations.BDCs may enter into hedging transaction andutilize derivative instruments such as forward con-tracts, options and swaps. Unanticipated move-ments and improper correlation of hedginginstruments may prevent a BDC from hedgingagainst exposure to risk of loss. BDCs may issueoptions, warrants, and rights to convert to votingsecurities to its officers, employees and boardmembers. Any issuance of derivative securitiesrequires the approval of the company’s board ofdirectors and authorization by the company’sshareholders. A BDC may operate a profit-shar-ing plan for its employees, subject to certainrestrictions.

BDC investments are frequently not publiclytraded and, as a result, there is uncertainty as tothe value and liquidity of those investments.BDCs may use independent valuation firms tovalue their investments and such valuations maybe uncertain, be based on estimates and/or differmaterially from that which would have been usedif a ready market for those investments existed.The value of a BDC could be adversely affected ifits determinations regarding the fair value ofinvestments was materially higher than the valuerealized upon sale of such investments. Due tothe relative illiquidity of certain BDC invest-ments, if a BDC is required to liquidate all or aportion of its portfolio quickly, it may realize sig-nificantly less than the value at which such invest-ments are recorded. Further restrictions may existon the ability to liquidate certain assets to theextent that subsidiaries or related parties havematerial non-public information regarding suchassets. BDCs are required to make available sig-nificant managerial assistance to their portfolio

companies. Significant managerial assistancerefers to any arrangement whereby a BDC pro-vides significant guidance and counsel concerningthe management, operations, or business objec-tives and policies of a portfolio company.Examples of such activities include arrangingfinancing, managing relationships with financingsources, recruiting management personnel, andevaluating acquisition and divestiture opportuni-ties. BDCs are frequently externally managed byan investment adviser which may also provide thisexternal managerial assistance to portfolio compa-nies. Such investment adviser’s liability may belimited under their investment advisory agree-ment which may lead such investment adviser toact in a riskier manner than it would were itinvesting for its own account. Such investmentadvisers may be entitled to incentive compensa-tion which may cause such adviser to make morespeculative and riskier investments than it wouldif investing for its own account. Such compensa-tion may be due even in the case of declines tothe value of a BDC’s investments.

BDCs frequently have high expenses whichmay include, but are not limited to, the paymentof management fees, administration expenses,taxes, interest payable on debt, governmentalcharges, independent director fees and expenses,valuation expenses, and fees payable to third par-ties relating to or associated with making invest-ments. If your trust invests in BDCs, then yourtrust will indirectly bear these expenses. Theseexpenses may fluctuate significantly over time. Ifa BDC fails to maintain its status as a BDC itmay be regulated as a closed-end fund whichwould subject such BDC to additional regulatoryrestrictions and significantly decrease its operatingflexibility. In addition, such failure could triggeran event of default under certain outstandingindebtedness which could have a material adverseimpact on its business.

Accordingly, a fund’sactual expenses may vary from what is indicatedat the time of investment by your trust. Thereare certain regulatory limitations on the ability ofyour trust to hold other investment companieswhich may impact the trust’s ability to invest cer-tain funds, may impact the weighting of a fund inyour trust’s portfolio and may impact your trust’sability to issue additional units in the future.

A decline in the economy whichresults in a reduction of consumers’ disposableincome can negatively impact spending habits.Competitiveness in the retail industry will requirelarge capital outlays for the installation of auto-mated checkout equipment to control inventory,track the sale of items and gauge the success ofsales campaigns.

Natural disasters will also impactcompanies in the energy industry. Oil productionand refining companies are subject to extensive fed-eral, state and local governmental laws and regula-tions regarding air emissions and the disposal ofhazardous materials. Companies engaged in theexploration, development, management or produc-tion of energy commodities face the risk that com-

Capital goodscompanies may also be significantly affected byoverall capital spending levels, economic cycles,technical obsolescence, delays in modernization,limitations on supply of key materials, laborrelations, government regulations, governmentcontracts and ecommerce initiatives. Furthermore,certain companies involved in the industry havealso faced scrutiny for alleged accounting irregular-ities that may have led to the overstatement oftheir financial results, and other companies in theindustry may face similar scrutiny.

FFoorreeiiggnn IIssssuueerr RRiisskk.. Your trust and/or certainfunds held by your trust may invest in the securi-ties of foreign issuers. An investment in securitiesof foreign issuers involves certain risks that are dif-ferent in some respects from an investment in secu-rities of domestic issuers. These include risks asso-ciated with future political and economic develop-ments, international trade conditions, foreign with-holding taxes, liquidity concerns, currency fluctua-tions, volatility, restrictions on foreign investmentsand exchange of securities, potential for expropria-tion of assets, confiscatory taxation, difficulty inobtaining or enforcing a court judgment, potentialinability to collect when a company goes bankruptand economic, political or social instability.Moreover, individual foreign economies may differfavorably or unfavorably from the U.S. economyfor reasons including differences in growth of grossdomestic product, rates of inflation, capital rein-vestment, resources, self-sufficiency and balance ofpayments positions There may be less publiclyavailable information about a foreign issuer than isavailable from a domestic issuer as a result of differ-ent accounting, auditing and financial reportingstandards. Some foreign markets are less liquidthan U.S. markets which could cause securities tobe bought at a higher price or sold at a lower pricethan would be the case in a highly liquid market.

Brokerage and other transaction costs on for-eign exchanges are often higher than in the U.S.and there is generally less governmental supervisionof exchanges, brokers and issuers in foreign coun-

tries. The increased expense of investing in foreignmarkets may reduce the amount an investor canearn on its investments and typically results in ahigher operating expense ratio than investments inonly domestic securities. Custody of certain securi-ties may be maintained by a global custody andclearing institution. Settlement and clearance pro-cedures in certain foreign markets differ significant-ly from those in the U.S. Foreign settlement andclearance procedures and trade regulations also mayinvolve certain risks (such as delays in payment foror delivery of securities) not typically associatedwith the settlement of domestic securities. Roundlot trading requirements exist in certain foreignsecurities markets which could cause the propor-tional composition and diversification of yourtrust’s and/or a fund’s portfolio to vary when yourtrust or a fund buys or sells securities.

CCuurrrreennccyy RRiisskk.. Because securities of foreignissuers not listed on a U.S. securities exchange gen-erally pay income and trade in foreign currencies,the U.S. dollar value of these securities and incomewill vary with fluctuations in foreign exchangerates. Most foreign currencies have fluctuatedwidely in value against the U.S. dollar for variouseconomic and political reasons. Generally, whenthe U.S. dollar rises in value against a foreign cur-rency, a security denominated in that currency losesvalue because the currency is worth fewer U.S. dol-lars. Conversely, when the U.S. dollar decreases invalue against a foreign currency, a security denomi-nated in that currency gains value because the cur-rency is worth more U.S. dollars. This risk, gener-ally known as “currency risk,” means that a strongU.S. dollar will reduce returns for U.S. investorswhile a weak U.S. dollar will increase those returns.

Some depositary receipts may experienceless liquidity than the underlying common stockstraded in their home market. Certain depositaryreceipts are unsponsored (i.e. issued without theparticipation or involvement of the issuer of theunderlying security). The issuers of unsponsoreddepositary receipts are not obligated to discloseinformation that may be considered material inthe U.S. Therefore, there may be less informationavailable regarding these issuers and, as a result,there may not be a correlation between certaininformation impacting a security and the marketvalue of the depositary receipts.

EEmmeerrggiinngg MMaarrkkeettss.. Your trust and/or certainfunds held by your trust may invest in certainsecurities issued by entities located in emergingmarkets. Emerging markets are generally definedas countries in the initial states of their industrial-ization cycles with low per capita income. Themarkets of emerging markets countries are gener-ally more volatile than the markets of developedcountries with more mature economies. All ofthe risks of investing in foreign securitiesdescribed above are heightened by investing inemerging markets countries.

SSuupprraannaattiioonnaall EEnnttiittiieess’’ SSeeccuurriittiieess.. Certainfunds held by your trust may invest in obligationsissued by supranational entities such as theInternational Bank for Reconstruction andDevelopment (the World Bank). The governmentmembers, or “stockholders,” usually make initialcapital contributions to supranational entities andin many cases are committed to make additionalcapital contributions if a supranational entity isunable to repay its borrowings. There is no guar-antee that one or more stockholders of a suprana-

tional entity will continue to make any necessaryadditional capital contributions. If such contribu-tions are not made, the entity may be unable topay interest or repay principal on its debt securities,and a fund may lose money on such investments.

SSmmaallll aanndd MMiidd--SSiizzee CCoommppaanniieess.. Your trustand/or certain funds held by your trust may investin securities issued by small and mid-size compa-nies. The share prices of these companies are oftenmore volatile than those of larger companies as aresult of several factors common to many suchissuers, including limited trading volumes, prod-ucts or financial resources, management inexperi-ence and less publicly available information. Inparticular, companies with smaller capitalizationsmay be less financially secure, depend on a smallernumber of key personnel and generally be subjectto more unpredictable price changes than larger,more established companies and the markets as awhole. Smaller capitalization and emerging growthcompanies may be particularly sensitive to changesin interest rates, borrowing costs and earnings.

Certain bondsheld by the funds may include call provisionswhich expose such funds and your trust to call risk.Call risk is the risk that the issuer prepays or “calls”a bond before its stated maturity.

Such fund might not be able to reinvestthis principal at as high a yield. A bond’s call pricecould be less than the price paid for the bond andcould be below the bond’s par value. Certainbonds may also be subject to extraordinary option-al or mandatory redemptions if certain eventsoccur, such as certain changes in tax laws, the sub-stantial damage or destruction by fire or othercasualty of the project for which the proceeds ofthe bonds were used, and various other events.

MMaarrkkeett DDiissccoouunntt.. Certain funds held by yourtrust may invest in bonds whose current marketvalues were below the principal value on the pur-chase date. A primary reason for the market valueof such bonds being less than the principal valueis that the interest rate of such bonds is at a lowerrate than the current market interest rates forcomparable bonds. Bonds selling at market dis-counts tend to increase in market value as theyapproach maturity.

PPrreemmiiuumm BBoonnddss.. Certain funds held by thetrust may invest in bonds whose current marketvalues were above the principal value on the pur-chase date. A primary reason for the market valueof such bonds being higher than the principalvalue is that the interest rate of such bonds is at ahigher rate than the current market interest ratesfor comparable bonds. The current returns ofbonds trading at a market premium are initiallyhigher than the current returns of comparablebonds issued at currently prevailing interest ratesbecause premium bonds tend to decrease in mar-

ket value as they approach maturity when theprincipal value becomes payable. Because part ofthe purchase price is effectively returned not atmaturity but through current income payments,early redemption of a premium bond at par orany other amount below the purchase price willresult in a reduction in yield. Redemption pur-suant to call provisions generally will, andredemption pursuant to sinking fund provisionsmay occur at times when the bonds have a marketvalue that represents a premium over par or, fororiginal issue discount securities, a premium overthe accreted value.

MMuunniicciippaall BBoonnddss.. Certain funds held by yourtrust may invest in municipal bonds. Municipalbonds are debt obligations issued by states or bypolitical subdivisions or authorities of states.Municipal bonds are typically designated as gen-eral obligation bonds, which are general obliga-tions of a governmental entity that are backed bythe taxing power of such entity, or revenue bonds,which are payable from the income of a specificproject or authority and are not supported by theissuer’s power to levy taxes. Municipal bonds arelong-term fixed rate debt obligations that general-ly decline in value with increases in interest rates,when an issuer’s financial condition worsens orwhen the rating on a bond is decreased. Manymunicipal bonds may be called or redeemed priorto their stated maturity, an event which is morelikely to occur when interest rates fall. In such anoccurrence, a fund may not be able to reinvest themoney it receives in other bonds that have as higha yield or as long a maturity. Many municipalbonds are subject to continuing requirements asto the actual use of the bond proceeds or mannerof operation of the project financed from bondproceeds that may affect the exemption of intereston such bonds from federal income taxation. Themarket for municipal bonds is generally less liq-uid than for other securities and therefore the

price of municipal bonds may be more volatileand subject to greater price fluctuations thansecurities with greater liquidity. In addition, anissuer’s ability to make income distributions gen-erally depends on several factors including thefinancial condition of the issuer and general eco-nomic conditions. Any of these factors may nega-tively impact the price of municipal bonds heldby a fund and would therefore impact the price ofboth the fund shares and your trust units.

SSoovveerreeiiggnn DDeebbtt.. Certain funds held by yourtrust may invest in sovereign debt. Sovereigndebt instruments are subject to the risk that agovernmental entity may delay or refuse to payinterest or repay principal on its sovereign debt,due, for example, to cash flow problems, insuffi-cient foreign currency reserves, political consider-ations, the relative size of the governmental enti-ty’s debt position in relation to the economy orthe failure to put in place required economicreforms. If a governmental entity defaults, it mayask for more time in which to pay or for furtherloans. There is no legal process for collecting sov-ereign debt that a government does not pay norare there bankruptcy proceedings through whichall or part of the sovereign debt that a govern-mental entity has not repaid may be collected.

Obligations of U.S.Government agencies, authorities, instrumentali-ties and sponsored enterprises have historicallyinvolved little risk of loss of principal if held tomaturity. However, not all U.S. Governmentsecurities are backed by the full faith and credit ofthe United States. Obligations of certain agen-cies, authorities, instrumentalities and sponsoredenterprises of the U.S. Government are backed bythe full faith and credit of the United States (e.g.,the Government National Mortgage Association);

other obligations are backed by the right of theissuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury (e.g., theFederal Home Loan Banks) and others are sup-ported by the discretionary authority of the U.S.Government to purchase an agency’s obligations.Still others are backed only by the credit of theagency, authority, instrumentality or sponsoredenterprise issuing the obligation. No assurancecan be given that the U.S. Government wouldprovide financial support to any of these entitiesif it is not obligated to do so by law.

HHiigghh YYiieelldd oorr ““JJuunnkk”” SSeeccuurriittiieess.. Certain fundsheld by your trust may invest in high yield securi-ties or unrated securities. High yield, high risksecurities are subject to greater market fluctua-tions and risk of loss than securities with higherinvestment ratings. The value of these securitieswill decline significantly with increases in interestrates, not only because increases in rates generallydecrease values, but also because increased ratesmay indicate an economic slowdown. An eco-nomic slowdown, or a reduction in an issuer’screditworthiness, may result in the issuer beingunable to maintain earnings at a level sufficient tomaintain interest and principal payments. Highyield or “junk” securities, the generic names forsecurities rated below “BBB” by Standard &Poor’s or “Baa” by Moody’s, are frequently issuedby corporations in the growth stage of their devel-opment or by established companies who arehighly leveraged or whose operations or industriesare depressed.

Becausehigh yield securities are generally subordinatedobligations and are perceived by investors to beriskier than higher rated securities, their pricestend to fluctuate more than higher rated securitiesand are affected by short-term credit develop-ments to a greater degree. The market for high-yield securities is smaller and less liquid than thatfor investment grade securities. High yield securi-ties are generally not listed on a national securitiesexchange but trade in the over-the-counter mar-kets. Due to the smaller, less liquid market forhigh yield securities, the bid-offer spread on suchsecurities is generally greater than it is for invest-ment grade securities and the purchase or sale ofsuch securities may take longer to complete.

SSeenniioorr LLooaannss.. Certain funds held by yourtrust may invest in senior loans and similar trans-actions. Senior loans are issued by banks, otherfinancial institutions and other investors to corpo-rations, partnerships, limited liability companiesand other entities to finance leveraged buyouts,recapitalizations, mergers, acquisitions, stockrepurchases, debt refinancings and, to a lesserextent, for general operating and other purposes.An investment by the funds in senior loans andsimilar transactions involves risk that the borrow-ers under such transactions may default on theirobligations to pay principal or interest when due.Although senior loans may be secured by specificcollateral, there can be no assurance that liquida-tion of collateral would satisfy the borrower’s obli-gation in the event of non-payment or that suchcollateral could be readily liquidated. Senior loansare typically structured as floating rate instrumentsin which the interest rate payable on the obliga-tion fluctuates with interest rate changes. As aresult, the yield on funds investing in senior loanswill generally decline in a falling interest rate envi-ronment and increase in a rising interest rate envi-

ronment. Senior loans are generally below invest-ment grade quality and may be unrated at thetime of investment; are generally not registeredwith the SEC or state securities commissions; andare generally not listed on any securities exchange.In addition, the amount of public informationavailable on senior loans is generally less extensivethan that available for other types of securities.

CCoonnvveerrttiibbllee SSeeccuurriittiieess.. Certain funds held byyour trust may invest in convertible securities.Convertible securities generally offer lower interestor dividend yields than non-convertible fixed-income securities of similar credit quality becauseof the potential for capital appreciation. Themarket values of convertible securities tend todecline as interest rates increase and, conversely,to increase as interest rates decline. However, aconvertible security’s market value also tends toreflect the market price of the common stock ofthe issuing company, particularly when that stockprice is greater than the convertible security’s“conversion price.” The conversion price isdefined as the predetermined price or exchangeratio at which the convertible security can be con-verted or exchanged for the underlying commonstock. As the market price of the underlyingcommon stock declines below the conversionprice, the price of the convertible security tends tobe increasingly influenced more by the yield ofthe convertible security. Thus, it may not declinein price to the same extent as the underlyingcommon stock. In the event of a liquidation ofthe issuing company, holders of convertible secu-rities would be paid before that company’s com-mon stockholders. Consequently, an issuer’s con-vertible securities generally entail less risk than itscommon stock. However, convertible securitiesfall below debt obligations of the same issuer inorder of preference or priority in the event of aliquidation and are typically unrated or ratedlower than such debt obligations.

Mandatory convertible securities are distin-guished as a subset of convertible securitiesbecause the conversion is not optional and theconversion price at maturity is based solely uponthe market price of the underlying common stock,which may be significantly less than par or theprice (above or below par) paid. For these reasons,the risks associated with investing in mandatoryconvertible securities most closely resemble therisks inherent in common stocks. Mandatory con-vertible securities customarily pay a higher couponyield to compensate for the potential risk of addi-tional price volatility and loss upon conversion.Because the market price of a mandatory convert-ible security increasingly corresponds to the mar-ket price of its underlying common stock, as theconvertible security approaches its conversion date,there can be no assurance that the higher couponwill compensate for a potential loss.

FFllooaattiinngg RRaattee IInnssttrruummeennttss.. Certain funds heldby your trust may invest in floating rate securities.A floating rate security is an instrument in whichthe interest rate payable on the obligation fluctu-ates on a periodic basis based upon changes in abenchmark, often related to interest rates. As aresult, the yield on such a security will generallydecline with negative changes to the benchmark,causing the trust to experience a reduction in theincome it receives from such securities. A suddenand significant increase in the applicable bench-mark may increase the risk of payment defaultsand cause a decline in the value of the security.

AAsssseett--BBaacckkeedd SSeeccuurriittiieess.. Certain funds held byyour trust may invest in asset-backed securities(“ABS”). ABS are securities backed by pools ofloans or other receivables. ABS are created frommany types of assets, including auto loans, creditcard receivables, home equity loans, and studentloans. ABS are issued through special purposevehicles that are bankruptcy remote from the

issuer of the collateral. The credit quality of anABS transaction depends on the performance ofthe underlying assets. To protect ABS investorsfrom the possibility that some borrowers couldmiss payments or even default on their loans, ABSinclude various forms of credit enhancement.Some ABS, particularly home equity loan transac-tions, are subject to interest rate risk and prepay-ment risk. A change in interest rates can affect thepace of payments on the underlying loans, whichin turn, affects total return on the securities. ABSalso carry credit or default risk. If many borrowerson the underlying loans default, losses couldexceed the credit enhancement level and result inlosses to investors in an ABS transaction. Finally,ABS have structure risk due to a unique character-istic known as early amortization, or early payout,risk. Built into the structure of most ABS are trig-gers for early payout, designed to protect investorsfrom losses. These triggers are unique to eachtransaction and can include: a big rise in defaultson the underlying loans, a sharp drop in the creditenhancement level, or even the bankruptcy of theoriginator. Once early amortization begins, allincoming loan payments (after expenses are paid)are used to pay investors as quickly as possiblebased upon a predetermined priority of payment.

Mortgage-backed securities are a typeof ABS representing direct or indirect participa-tions in, or are secured by and payable from,mortgage loans secured by real property and caninclude single- and multi-class pass-through secu-rities and collateralized mortgage obligations.Mortgage-backed securities are based on differenttypes of mortgages, including those on commercialreal estate or residential properties. These securi-ties often have stated maturities of up to thirtyyears when they are issued, depending upon thelength of the mortgages underlying the securities.

In practice, however, unscheduled or early pay-ments of principal and interest on the underlyingmortgages may make the securities’ effective matu-rity shorter than this. Rising interest rates tend toextend the duration of mortgage-backed securities,making them more sensitive to changes in interestrates, and may reduce the market value of thesecurities. In addition, mortgage-backed securitiesare subject to prepayment risk, the risk that bor-rowers may pay off their mortgages sooner thanexpected, particularly when interest rates decline.This can reduce the funds’, and therefore yourtrust’s, returns because the funds may have to rein-vest that money at lower prevailing interest rates.

RReessttrriicctteedd SSeeccuurriittiieess.. Certain funds held byyour trust may invest in securities that may onlybe resold pursuant to Rule 144A under theSecurities Act of 1933. Such securities may not bereadily marketable. Restricted securities may besold only to purchasers meeting certain eligibilityrequirements in privately negotiated transactionsor in a public offering with respect to which a reg-istration statement is in effect under the SecuritiesAct. Where registration of such securities underthe Securities Act is required, a fund may be obli-gated to pay all or part of the registration expensesand a considerable period may elapse between thetime of the decision to sell and the time the fundmay be permitted to sell a security under an effec-tive registration statement.

CCoovveerreedd CCaallll OOppttiioonn SSttrraatteeggiieess.. Certain fundsheld by your trust may invest using covered call

option strategies. You should understand the risksof these strategies before you invest. In employinga covered call strategy, a closed-end fund will gen-erally write (sell) call options on a significant por-tion of the fund’s managed assets. These calloptions will give the option holder the right, butnot the obligation, to purchase a security from thefund at the strike price on or prior to the option’sexpiration date. The ability to successfully imple-ment the fund’s investment strategy depends onthe fund adviser’s ability to predict pertinent mar-ket movements, which cannot be assured. Thus,the use of options may require a fund to sell port-folio securities at inopportune times or for pricesother than current market values, may limit theamount of appreciation the fund can realize on aninvestment, or may cause the fund to hold a secu-rity that it might otherwise sell. The writer (seller)of an option has no control over the time when itmay be required to fulfill its obligation as a writer(seller) of the option. Once an option writer (sell-er) has received an exercise notice, it cannot effecta closing purchase transaction in order to termi-nate its obligation under the option and mustdeliver the underlying security at the exerciseprice. As the writer (seller) of a covered calloption, a fund forgoes, during the option’s life, theopportunity to profit from increases in the marketvalue of the security underlying the call optionabove the sum of the premium and the strike priceof the call option, but has retained the risk of lossshould the price of the underlying security decline.The value of the options written (sold) by a fund,which will be marked-to-market on a daily basis,will be affected by changes in the value and divi-dend rates of the underlying securities, an increasein interest rates, changes in the actual or perceivedvolatility of securities markets and the underlyingsecurities and the remaining time to the options’expiration. The value of the options may also beadversely affected if the market for the optionsbecomes less liquid or smaller.

An option is generally considered “covered” ifa fund owns the security underlying the calloption or has an absolute and immediate right toacquire that security without additional cash con-sideration (or, if required, liquid cash or otherassets are segregated by the fund) upon conver-sion or exchange of other securities held by thefund. In certain cases, a call option may also beconsidered covered if a fund holds a call optionon the same security as the call option written(sold) provided that certain conditions are met.By writing (selling) covered call options, a fundgenerally seeks to generate income, in the form ofthe premiums received for writing (selling) thecall options. Investment income paid by a fundto its shareholders (such as the trust) may bederived primarily from the premiums it receivesfrom writing (selling) call options and, to a lesserextent, from the dividends and interest it receivesfrom the equity securities or other investmentsheld in the fund’s portfolio and short-term gainsthereon. Premiums from writing (selling) calloptions and dividends and interest paymentsmade by the securities in a fund’s portfolio canvary widely over time.

PPrreeffeerrrreedd SSeeccuurriittiieess.. Certain funds held byyour trust may invest in preferred securitiesincluding preferred stocks, trust preferred securi-ties, subordinated or junior notes and debenturesand other similarly structured securities.Preferred securities combine some of the charac-teristics of common stocks and bonds. Preferredsecurities generally pay fixed or adjustable rateincome in the form of dividends or interest toinvestors. Preferred securities generally have pref-erence over common stock in the payment ofincome and the liquidation of a company’s assets.However, preferred securities are typically subor-dinated to bonds and other debt instruments in acompany’s capital structure and therefore will besubject to greater credit risk than those debt

instruments. Because of their subordinated posi-tion in the capital structure of an issuer, the abili-ty to defer dividend or interest payments forextended periods of time without triggering anevent of default for the issuer, and certain otherfeatures, preferred securities are often treated asequity-like instruments by both issuers andinvestors, as their quality and value are heavilydependent on the profitability and cash flows ofthe issuer rather than on any legal claims to spe-cific assets. Most retail-available preferred securi-ties have a $25 par (or “face”) value but can alsohave par values of $50 or $1,000. Preferred secu-rities are often callable at their par value at somepoint in time after their original issuance date.Income payments on preferred securities are gen-erally stated as a percentage of these par valuesalthough certain preferred securities provide forvariable or additional participation payments.

While some preferred securities are issuedwith a final maturity date, others are perpetual innature. In certain instances, a final maturity datemay be extended and/or the final payment ofprincipal may be deferred at the issuer’s optionfor a specified time without triggering an eventof default for the issuer. Preferred securities gen-erally may be subject to provisions that allow anissuer, under certain conditions, to skip (“non-cumulative” preferred securities) or defer (“cumu-lative” preferred securities) distributions. Theissuer of a non-cumulative preferred security doesnot have an obligation to make up any arrearagesto holders of such securities and non-cumulativepreferred securities can defer distributions indefi-nitely. Cumulative preferred securities typicallycontain provisions that allow an issuer, at its dis-cretion, to defer distributions payments for up to10 years. If a preferred security is deferring itsdistribution, investors may be required to recog-nize income for tax purposes while they are notreceiving any income. In certain circumstances,

an issuer of preferred securities may redeem thesecurities during their life. For certain types ofpreferred securities, a redemption may be trig-gered by a change in federal income tax or securi-ties laws. As with call provisions, a redemptionby the issuer may negatively impact the return ofthe security. Preferred security holders generallyhave no voting rights with respect to the issuingcompany except in very limited situations, suchas if the issuer fails to make income payments fora specified period of time or if a declaration ofdefault occurs and is continuing. Preferred secu-rities may be substantially less liquid than manyother securities, such as U.S. government securi-ties or common stock. The federal income taxtreatment of preferred securities may not be clearor may be subject to recharacterization by theInternal Revenue Service. Issuers of preferredsecurities may be in industries that are heavilyregulated and that may receive governmentfunding. The value of preferred securities issuedby these companies may be affected by changesin government policy, such as increased regula-tion, ownership restrictions, deregulation orreduced government funding.

Preferred stocks are a category of preferredsecurities that are typically considered equitysecurities and make income payments from anissuer’s after-tax profits that are treated as divi-dends for tax purposes. While they generallyprovide for specified income payments as a per-centage of their par value, these payments gener-ally do not carry the same set of guaranteesafforded to bondholders and have higher risks ofnon-payment or deferral.

Certain preferred securities may be issued bytrusts or other special purpose entities establishedby operating companies, and are therefore notdirect obligations of operating companies. At thetime a trust or special purpose entity sells its pre-

ferred securities to investors, the trust or specialpurpose entity generally purchases debt of theoperating company with terms comparable tothose of the trust or special purpose entity securi-ties. The trust or special purpose entity, as theholder of the operating company’s debt, has prior-ity with respect to the operating company’s earn-ings and profits over the operating company’scommon shareholders, but is typically subordinat-ed to other classes of the operating company’sdebt. Distribution payments of trust preferredsecurities generally coincide with interest pay-ments on the underlying obligations.Distributions from trust preferred securities aretypically treated as interest rather than dividendsfor federal income tax purposes and therefore, arenot eligible for the dividends-received deductionor the lower federal tax rates applicable to quali-fied dividends. Trust preferred securities generallyinvolve the same risks as traditional preferredstocks but are also subject to unique risks, includ-ing risks associated with income payments onlybeing made if payments on the underlying obliga-tions are made. Typically, a trust preferred securi-ty will have a rating that is below that of its corre-sponding operating company’s senior debt securi-ties due to its subordinated nature.

Subordinated or junior notes or debenturesare securities that generally have priority to com-mon stock and other preferred securities in acompany’s capital structure but are subordinatedto other bonds and debt instruments in a compa-ny's capital structure. As a result, these securitieswill be subject to greater credit risk than thosesenior debt instruments and will not receiveincome payments or return of principal in theevent of insolvency until all obligations on seniordebt instruments have been made. Distributionsfrom these securities are typically treated as inter-est rather than dividends for federal income taxpurposes and therefore, are not eligible for the

RReeaall EEssttaattee RReellaatteedd SSeeccuurriittiieess.. Your trustand/or certain funds held by the trust may investin securities providing exposure to real estateinvestments. Risks associated with the ownershipof real estate include, among other factors,changes in general U.S., global and local econom-ic conditions, decline in real estate values, changesin the financial health of tenants, overbuildingand increased competition for tenants, oversupplyof properties for sale, changing demographics,changes in interest rates, tax rates and other oper-ating expenses, changes in government regula-tions, faulty construction and the ongoing needfor capital improvements, regulatory and judicialrequirements, including relating to liability forenvironmental hazards, changes in neighborhoodvalues and buyer demand, and the unavailabilityof construction financing or mortgage loans atrates acceptable to developers.

RReeaall EEssttaattee IInnvveessttmmeenntt TTrruussttss.. Your trustand/or certain funds held by the trust may investin securities issued by real estate investmenttrusts (“REITs”). Many factors can have anadverse impact on the performance of a REIT,including its cash available for distribution, thecredit quality of the REIT or the real estateindustry generally. The success of a REITdepends on various factors, including the occu-pancy and rent levels, appreciation of the under-lying property and the ability to raise rents onthose properties. Economic recession, overbuild-ing, tax law changes, higher interest rates orexcessive speculation can all negatively impactREITs, their future earnings and share prices.Variations in rental income and space availability

and vacancy rates in terms of supply and demandare additional factors affecting real estate generallyand REITs in particular. Properties owned by aREIT may not be adequately insured against cer-tain losses and may be subject to significant envi-ronmental liabilities, including remediation costs.You should also be aware that REITs may not bediversified and are subject to the risks of financingprojects. The real estate industry may be cyclical,and, if REIT securities are acquired at or near thetop of the cycle, there is increased risk of a declinein value of the REIT securities. At various pointsin time, demand for certain types of real estatemay inflate the value of real estate. This mayincrease the risk of a substantial decline in thevalue of such real estate and increase the risk of adecline in the value of the securities. REITs arealso subject to defaults by borrowers and the mar-ket’s perception of the REIT industry generally.Because of their structure, and a current legalrequirement that they distribute at least 90% oftheir taxable income to shareholders annually,REITs require frequent amounts of new funding,through both borrowing money and issuing stock.Thus, REITs historically have frequently issuedsubstantial amounts of new equity shares (orequivalents) to purchase or build new properties.This may adversely affect REIT equity share mar-ket prices. Both existing and new share issuancesmay have an adverse effect on these prices in thefuture, especially if REITs issue stock when realestate prices are relatively high and stock pricesare relatively low.

Mortgage REITs engage in financing realestate, purchasing or originating mortgages andmortgage-backed securities and earning incomefrom the interest on these investments. SuchREITs face risks similar to those of other financialfirms, such as changes in interest rates, generalmarket conditions and credit risk, in addition torisks associated with an investment in real estate.

MMLLPPss.. Your trust and/or certain funds heldby the trust may invest in master limited partner-ships (“MLPs”). MLPs are limited partnership orlimited liability companies that are generallytaxed as partnership whose interests are generallytraded on securities exchanges. An MLP consistsof a general partner and limited partners. Thegeneral partner manages the partnership, has anownership stake in the partnership and is eligibleto receive an incentive distribution. The limitedpartners provide capital to the partnership, have alimited (if any) role in the operation and man-agement of the partnership and receive cash dis-tributions. Unlike stockholders of a corporation,limited partners do not elect directors annuallyand generally have the right to vote only on cer-tain significant events, such as mergers, a sale ofsubstantially all of the partnership assets, removalof the general partner or material amendments tothe partnership agreement. Limited partnersgenerally have first right to a minimum quarterlydistribution prior to distributions to the convert-ible subordinated unit holders or the generalpartner (including incentive distributions) andtypically have arrearage rights if the minimumquarterly distribution is not met. Most MLPsgenerally operate in the energy natural resourcesor real estate sector and are subject to the risksgenerally applicable to companies in those sec-tors. Those risks include, but are not limited to,commodity pricing risk, supply and demand risk,depletion risk and exploration risk. MLPs arealso subject to the risk that authorities couldchallenge the tax treatment of MLPs for federalincome tax purposes which could have a negativeimpact on the after-tax income available for dis-tribution by the MLPs and/or the value of yourtrust’s investments.

DDeerriivvaattiivveess RRiisskk.. Certain funds held by yourtrust may engage in transactions in derivatives.Derivatives are subject to counterparty risk which

is the risk that the other party in a transactionmay be unable or unwilling to meet obligationswhen due. Use of derivatives may increasevolatility of a fund and the trust and reducereturns. Fluctuations in the value of derivativesmay not correspond with fluctuations of underly-ing exposures. Unanticipated market movementscould result in significant losses on derivativepositions including greater losses than amountsoriginally invested and potentially unlimited loss-es in the case of certain derivatives. There are noassurances that there will be a secondary marketavailable in any derivative position which couldresult in illiquidity and the inability of a fund toliquidate or terminate positions as valued.Valuation of derivative positions may be difficultand increase during times of market turmoil.Certain derivatives may be used as a hedge againstother securities positions however hedging can besubject to the risk of imperfect alignment andthere are no assurances that a hedge will beachieved as intended which can pose significantloss to a fund and your trust. Recent legislationhas called for significant increases to the regula-tion of the derivatives market. Regulatorychanges and rulemaking is ongoing and the fullimpact may not be known for some time.

SSwwaappss.. Certain funds held by your trust mayinvest in swaps. In addition to general risks asso-ciated with derivatives described above, swapagreements involve the risk that the party withwhom a fund has entered into the swap willdefault on its obligation to pay a fund and therisk that a fund will not be able to meet its obli-gations to pay the other party to the agreement.Swaps entered into by a fund may include, butare not limited to, interest rate swaps, total returnswaps and/or credit default swaps. In an interestrate swap transaction, two parties exchange rightsto receive interest payments, such as exchangingthe right to receive floating rate payments basedon a reference interest rate for the right to receivefixed rate payments. In addition to the generalrisks associated with derivatives and swapsdescribed above, interest rate swaps are subject tointerest rate risk and credit risk. In a total returnswap transaction, one party agrees to pay anotherparty an amount equal to the total return on areference asset during a specified period of time inreturn for periodic payments based on a fixed orvariable interest rate or on the total return from adifferent reference asset. In addition to the gener-al risks associated with derivatives and swapsdescribed above, total return swaps could result inlosses if the reference asset does not perform asanticipated and these swaps can have the potentialfor unlimited losses. In a credit default swap

transaction, one party makes one or more pay-ments over the term of the contract to the coun-terparty, provided that no event of default withrespect to a specific obligation or issuer hasoccurred. In return, upon any event of default,such party would receive from the counterparty apayment equal to the par (or other agreed-upon)value of such specified obligation. In addition togeneral risks associated with derivatives and swapsdescribed above, credit default swaps involve spe-cial risks because they are difficult to value, arehighly susceptible to liquidity and credit risk, andgenerally pay a return to the party that has paidthe premium only in the event of an actualdefault by the issuer of the underlying obligation(as opposed to a credit downgrade or other indi-cation of financial difficulty).

There can be noassurance that a fund will be able to close out ashort sale position at any particular time or at anacceptable price. Although a fund’s gain is limit-ed to the amount at which it sold a securityshort, its potential loss is limited only by themaximum attainable price of the security, less theprice at which the security was sold.

Closed-end funds are subject to various risks,including management’s ability to meet theclosed-end fund’s investment objective, and tomanage the closed-end fund portfolio when theunderlying securities are redeemed or sold, duringperiods of market turmoil and as investors’ per-ceptions regarding closed-end funds or theirunderlying investments change.

Shares of closed-end funds frequently trade ata discount from their net asset value in the sec-ondary market. This risk is separate and distinctfrom the risk that the net asset value of closed-endfund shares may decrease. The amount of suchdiscount from net asset value is subject to changefrom time to time in response to various factors.

Certain of the closed-end funds included inyour trust may employ the use of leverage in theirportfolios through the issuance of preferred stock.While leverage often serves to increase the yield ofa closed-end fund, this leverage also subjects theclosed-end fund to increased risks. These risksmay include the likelihood of increased volatilityand the possibility that the closed-end fund’scommon share income will fall if the dividendrate on the preferred shares or the interest rate onany borrowings rises. The use of leverage maycause a closed-end fund to liquidate portfoliopositions when it may not be advantageous to doso to satisfy its obligations or to meet anyrequired asset segregation requirements.

Securities lend-ing involves the risk that the borrower may fail toreturn the securities in a timely manner or at all.As a result, a fund could lose money and theremay be a delay in recovering the loaned securities.A fund could also lose money if it does not recov-er the securities and/or the value of the collateralfalls, including the value of investments madewith cash collateral. These events could triggeradverse tax consequences for a fund.

Only the trustee may vote the shares of theclosed-end funds held in your trust. The trusteewill vote the shares in the same general proportionas shares held by other shareholders of each fund.Your trust may be required, however, to reject anyoffer for securities or other property in exchangefor portfolio securities as described under “Howthe Trust Works—Changing Your Portfolio.”

YYoouurr TTrruusstt.. Your trust is a unit investmenttrust registered under the Investment CompanyAct of 1940. We created your trust under a trustagreement between Advisors Asset Management,Inc. (as depositor/sponsor, evaluator and supervi-sor) and The Bank of New York Mellon (astrustee). To create your trust, we deposited secu-rities with the trustee (or contracts to purchasesecurities along with an irrevocable letter of creditor other consideration to pay for the securities).In exchange, the trustee delivered units of yourtrust to us. Each unit represents an undividedinterest in the assets of your trust. These unitsremain outstanding until redeemed or until yourtrust terminates. At the close of the New YorkStock Exchange on your trust’s inception date, the

number of units may be adjusted so that the pub-lic offering price per unit equals $10. The num-ber of units and fractional interest of each unit inyour trust will increase or decrease to the extentof any adjustment.

CChhaannggiinngg YYoouurr PPoorrttffoolliioo.. Your trust is not amanaged fund. Unlike a managed fund, wedesigned your portfolio to remain relatively fixed.Your trust will generally buy and sell securities:

• to pay expenses,

• to issue additional units or redeem units,

• to take actions in response to certain cor-porate actions and other events impactingportfolio securities,

• in limited circumstances to protect thetrust,

• to make required distributions or avoidimposition of taxes on the trust, or

• as permitted by the trust agreement.

When your trust sells securities, the compo-sition and diversification of the securities in theportfolio may be altered. If a public tender offerhas been made for a security or a merger, acqui-sition or similar transaction has been announcedaffecting a security, the sponsor may direct thetrustee to sell the security or accept a tenderoffer if the supervisor determines that the actionis in the best interest of unitholders. The trusteewill distribute any available cash proceeds tounitholders.

If an offer by the issuer of any of the portfo-lio securities or any other party is made to issuenew securities, or to exchange securities, for trustportfolio securities, the trustee will reject the offerunless your trust is a “regulated investment com-pany” for tax purposes (see “Essential

Information—Tax Structure” in the “InvestmentSummary” section for your trust in this prospec-tus). If your trust is a “regulated investment com-pany” for tax purposes and an offer by the issuerof any of the portfolio securities or any otherparty is made to issue new securities, or toexchange securities, for trust portfolio securities,the trustee may either vote for or against, oraccept or reject, any offer for new or exchangedsecurities or property in exchange for a trust port-folio security at the direction of the sponsor.

If any issuance, exchange or substitution ofnew or exchanged securities or property inexchange for a trust portfolio security occurs(regardless of any action or rejection by a trust),any securities and/or property received will bedeposited into the trust and will be promptly soldby the trustee pursuant to the sponsor’s direction,unless the sponsor advises the trustee to keep suchsecurities or property.

If any contract for the purchase of securitiesfails, the sponsor will refund the cash and sales feeattributable to the failed contract to unitholderson or before the next distribution date unless sub-stantially all of the moneys held to cover the pur-chase are reinvested in substitute securities inaccordance with the trust agreement. If yourtrust is a “regulated investment company” for taxpurposes, the sponsor may direct the reinvestmentof security sale proceeds if the sale is the directresult of serious adverse credit factors which, inthe opinion of the supervisor, would make reten-tion of the securities detrimental to the trust. Insuch a case, the sponsor may, but is not obligatedto, direct the reinvestment of sale proceeds inany other securities that meet the criteria forinclusion in the trust on the trust’s inceptiondate. The sponsor may also instruct the trustee totake action necessary to ensure that a portfoliocontinues to satisfy the qualifications of a “regu-

lated investment company” for tax purposes.Your trust will not participate in rights offeringsof closed-end funds, if any.

We will increase the size of your trust as wesell units. When we create additional units, wewill seek to replicate the existing portfolio to theextent practicable. When your trust buys securi-ties, it may pay brokerage or other acquisitionfees. You could experience a dilution of yourinvestment because of these fees and fluctuationsin security prices between the time we create unitsand the time your trust buys the securities.When your trust buys or sells securities, we maydirect that it place orders with and pay brokeragecommissions to brokers that sell units or are affili-ated with us, your trust or the trustee.

Pursuant to an exemptive order, your trustmay be able to purchase securities from othertrusts that we sponsor when we create additionalunits. Your trust may also be able to sell securitiesto other trusts that we sponsor to satisfy unitredemption, pay deferred sales charges or expenses,in connection with periodic tax compliance or inconnection with the termination of your trust.The exemption may enable each trust to eliminatecommission costs on these transactions. The pricefor those securities will be the closing price on thesale date on the exchange where the securities areprincipally traded as certified by us to the trustee.

The sponsorand the trustee can change the trust agreementwithout your consent to correct any provisionthat may be defective or to make other provisionsthat will not materially adversely affect your inter-est (as determined by the sponsor and thetrustee). We cannot change this agreement toreduce your interest in your trust without yourconsent. Investors owning two-thirds of the unitsin your trust may vote to change this agreement.

Your trust will ter-minate on the termination date set forth under“Essential Information” in the “InvestmentSummary” section of this prospectus for yourtrust. The trustee may terminate your trust earlyif the value of the trust is less than 40% of theoriginal value of the securities in your trust at thetime of deposit. At this size, the expenses of yourtrust may create an undue burden on your invest-ment. Investors owning two-thirds of the units inyour trust may also vote to terminate the trustearly. The trustee will liquidate your trust in theevent that a sufficient number of units not yet soldto the public are tendered for redemption so thatthe net worth of your trust would be reduced toless than 40% of the value of the securities at thetime they were deposited in the trust. If this hap-pens, we will refund any sales charge that you paid.

You will receive your final distribution withina reasonable time following liquidation of all thesecurities after deducting final expenses. Your ter-mination distribution may be less than the priceyou originally paid for your units.

HHooww WWee DDiissttrriibbuuttee UUnniittss.. We sell units tothe public through broker-dealers and otherfirms. These distribution firms each receive partof the sales fee when they sell units. During theinitial offering period, the broker-dealer conces-sion or agency commission for broker-dealers andother firms is 1.25% of the public offering priceper unit at the time of the transaction. The bro-ker-dealer concession or agency commission is65% of the sales fee for secondary market sales.No broker-dealer concession or agency commis-sion is paid to broker-dealers, investment advisersor other selling firms in connection with unitsales in Fee Accounts subject to a Wrap Fee.

Broker-dealers and other firms that sell unitsof certain unit investment trusts for which AAMacts as sponsor are eligible to receive additionalcompensation for volume sales. The sponsoroffers two separate volume concession structuresfor certain trusts that are referred to as “VolumeConcession A” and “Volume Concession B.”The trusts offered in this prospectus are VolumeConcession A trusts. Broker-dealers and otherfirms that sell units of any Volume Concession Atrust are eligible to receive the additional com-pensation described below. Such payments willbe in addition to the regular concessions paid tofirms as set forth in the applicable trust’sprospectus.

The additional concession for sales in a cal-endar month is based on total initial offeringperiod sales of all Volume Concession A trustsduring the 12-month period through the end of

the preceding calendar month as set forth in thefollowing table:

Initial Offering Period Sales VolumeIn Preceding 12 Months Concession

$25,000,000 but less than $100,000,000 0.035%$100,000,000 but less than $150,000,000 0.050$150,000,000 but less than $250,000,000 0.075$250,000,000 but less than $1,000,000,000 0.100$1,000,000,000 but less than $5,000,000,000 0.125$5,000,000,000 but less than $7,500,000,000 0.150$7,500,000,000 or more 0.175

We will pay these amounts out of our ownassets within a reasonable time following each cal-endar month.

The volume concessions will be paid on unitsof all Volume Concession A trusts sold in the ini-tial offering period, except as described below.For a trust to be eligible for this additionalVolume Concession A compensation, the trust’sprospectus must include disclosure related to theadditional Volume Concession A compensation; atrust is not eligible for additional VolumeConcession A compensation if the prospectus forsuch trust does not include disclosure related tothe additional Volume Concession A compensa-tion. In addition, dealer firms will not receivevolume concessions on the sale of units which arenot subject to a transactional sales charge.However, such sales will be included in determin-ing whether a firm has met the sales level break-points for volume concessions subject to the poli-cies of the related selling firm. Secondary marketsales of all unit trusts are excluded for purposes ofthese volume concessions.

Any sales fee discount is borne by the broker-dealer or selling firm out of the broker-dealerconcession or agency commission. We reserve theright to change the amount of compensation paid

to selling firms from time to time. Some broker-dealers and other selling firms may limit the com-pensation they or their representatives receive inconnection with unit sales. As a result, certainbroker-dealers and other selling firms may waiveor refuse payment of all or a portion of the regu-lar concession or agency commission and/or vol-ume concession described above and instruct thesponsor to retain such amounts rather than pay orallow the amounts to such firm.

We currently may provide, at our own expenseand out of our own profits, additional compensa-tion and benefits to broker-dealers who sell units ofyour trust and our other products. This compensa-tion is intended to result in additional sales of ourproducts and/or compensate broker-dealers andfinancial advisors for past sales. A number of fac-tors are considered in determining whether to paythese additional amounts. Such factors mayinclude, but are not limited to, the level or typeof services provided by the intermediary, the levelor expected level of sales of our products by theintermediary or its agents, the placing of ourproducts on a preferred or recommended productlist and access to an intermediary’s personnel. Wemay make these payments for marketing, promo-tional or related expenses, including, but not lim-ited to, expenses of entertaining retail customersand financial advisors, advertising, sponsorship ofevents or seminars, obtaining information aboutthe breakdown of unit sales among an intermedi-ary’s representatives or offices, obtaining shelfspace in broker-dealer firms and similar activitiesdesigned to promote the sale of our products. Wemake such payments to a substantial majority ofintermediaries that sell our products. We mayalso make certain payments to, or on behalf of,intermediaries to defray a portion of their costsincurred for the purpose of facilitating unit sales,such as the costs of developing or purchasingtrading systems to process unit trades. Payments

of such additional compensation described in thisparagraph and the volume concessions describedabove, some of which may be characterized as“revenue sharing,” may create an incentive forfinancial intermediaries and their agents to sell orrecommend our products, including your trust,over other products. These arrangements will notchange the price you pay for your units.

We generally register units for sale in variousstates in the U.S. We do not register units forsale in any foreign country. This prospectus doesnot constitute an offer of units in any state orcountry where units cannot be offered or soldlawfully. We may reject any order for units inwhole or in part.

We may gain or lose money when we holdunits in the primary or secondary market due tofluctuations in unit prices. The gain or loss isequal to the difference between the price we payfor units and the price at which we sell or redeemthem. We may also gain or lose money when wedeposit securities to create units. The amount ofour profit or loss on the initial deposit of securi-ties into your trust is shown in the “Notes toPortfolio” section for your trust.

TTAAXXEESS——RREEGGUULLAATTEEDD IINNVVEESSTTMMEENNTT CCOOMMPPAANNIIEESS

This section summarizes some of the mainU.S. federal income tax consequences of owningunits of your trust if your trust intends to qualifyas a “regulated investment company” under feder-al tax laws. The tax structure of your trust is setforth under “Essential Information-Tax Structure”in the “Investment Summary” section for yourtrust in this prospectus.

This section is current as of the date of thisprospectus. Tax laws and interpretations changefrequently, and these summaries do not describe

Page 105: docs.aamlive.com...Preliminary Prospectus Dated January 31, 2018 ADVISORS DISCIPLINED TRUST 1867 ADVISORS CORE EQUITY STRATEGY PORTFOLIO, SERIES 2018-2Q BAHL & …

all of the tax consequences to all taxpayers. Forexample, these summaries generally do notdescribe your situation if you are a corporation, anon-U.S. person, a broker/dealer, or otherinvestor with special circumstances. In addition,this section does not describe your state, local orforeign tax consequences.

This federal income tax summary is based inpart on the advice of counsel to the sponsor. TheInternal Revenue Service could disagree with anyconclusions set forth in this section. In addition,our counsel was not asked to review, and has notreached a conclusion with respect to the federalincome tax treatment of the assets to be depositedin your trust. This may not be sufficient for youto use for the purpose of avoiding penalties underfederal tax law.

As with any investment, you should seekadvice based on your individual circumstancesfrom your own tax advisor.

TTrruusstt SSttaattuuss.. Your trust intends to qualify asa “regulated investment company” under the fed-eral tax laws. If your trust qualifies as a regulatedinvestment company and distributes its income asrequired by the tax law, your trust generally willnot pay federal income taxes. If your trust investsin a partnership, an adverse federal income taxaudit of that partnership could result in the trustbeing required to pay federal income tax or pay adeficiency dividend (without having receivedadditional cash).

DDiissttrriibbuuttiioonnss.. Trust distributions are generallytaxable. After the end of each year, you willreceive a tax statement that separates your trust’sdistributions into three categories, ordinaryincome distributions, capital gain dividends andreturn of capital. Ordinary income distributionsare generally taxed at your ordinary tax rate, how-

ever, as further discussed below, certain ordinaryincome distributions received from your trust maybe taxed at the capital gains tax rates. Generally,you will treat all capital gain dividends as long-term capital gains regardless of how long you haveowned your units. To determine your actual taxliability for your capital gain dividends, you mustcalculate your total net capital gain or loss for thetax year after considering all of your other taxabletransactions, as described below. In addition, yourtrust may make distributions that represent areturn of capital for tax purposes and thus willgenerally not be taxable to you. A return of capi-tal, although not initially taxable to you, will resultin a reduction in the basis in your units and subse-quently result in higher levels of taxable capitalgains in the future. In addition, if the non-divi-dend distribution exceeds your basis in your units,you will have long-term or short-term gaindepending upon your holding period. The taxstatus of your distributions from your trust is notaffected by whether you reinvest your distributionsin additional units or receive them in cash. Theincome from your trust that you must take intoaccount for federal income tax purposes is notreduced by amounts used to pay a deferred salesfee, if any. The tax laws may require you to treatdistributions made to you in January as if you hadreceived them on December 31 of the previousyear. Income from your trust may also be subjectto a 3.8 percent “medicare tax.” This tax generallyapplies to your net investment income if youradjusted gross income exceeds certain thresholdamounts, which are $250,000 in the case of mar-ried couples filing joint returns and $200,000 inthe case of single individuals.

DDiivviiddeennddss RReecceeiivveedd DDeedduuccttiioonn.. A corporationthat owns units generally will not be entitled to thedividends received deduction with respect to manydividends received from your trust because the div-idends received deduction is generally not available

Understanding Your Investment 103

Page 106: docs.aamlive.com...Preliminary Prospectus Dated January 31, 2018 ADVISORS DISCIPLINED TRUST 1867 ADVISORS CORE EQUITY STRATEGY PORTFOLIO, SERIES 2018-2Q BAHL & …

for distributions from regulated investment compa-nies. However, certain ordinary income dividendson units that are attributable to qualifying divi-dends received by your trust from certain corpora-tions may be reported by the trust as being eligiblefor the dividends received deduction.

SSaallee oorr RReeddeemmppttiioonn ooff UUnniittss.. If you sell orredeem your units, you will generally recognize ataxable gain or loss. To determine the amount ofthis gain or loss, you must subtract your tax basisin your units from the amount you receive in thetransaction. Your tax basis in your units is gener-ally equal to the cost of your units, generallyincluding sales charges. In some cases, however,you may have to adjust your tax basis after youpurchase your units.

CCaappiittaall GGaaiinnss aanndd LLoosssseess aanndd CCeerrttaaiinn OOrrddiinnaarryyIInnccoommee DDiivviiddeennddss.. If you are an individual, themaximum marginal stated federal tax rate for netcapital gain is generally 20% for taxpayers in the39.6% tax bracket, 15% for taxpayers in the 25%,28%, 33% and 35% tax brackets and 0% for tax-payers in the 10% and 15% tax brackets. Someportion of your capital gain dividends may besubject to higher maximum marginal stated federalincome tax rates. Some portion of your capitalgain dividends may be attributable to the trust'sinterest in a master limited partnership which maybe subject to a maximum marginal stated federalincome tax rate of 28%, rather than the rates setforth above. In addition, capital gain receivedfrom assets held for more than one year that is con-sidered “unrecaptured section 1250 gain” (whichmay be the case, for example, with some capitalgains attributable to equity interests in real estateinvestment trusts that constitute interests in entitiestreated as real estate investment trusts for federalincome tax purposes) is taxed at a maximum statedtax rate of 25%. In the case of capital gain divi-dends, the determination of which portion of the

capital gain dividend, if any, is subject to the 28%tax rate or the 25% tax rate, will be made based onrules prescribed by the United States Treasury.Capital gains may also be subject to the “medicaretax” described above.

Net capital gain equals net long-term capitalgain minus net short-term capital loss for the tax-able year. Capital gain or loss is long-term if theholding period for the asset is more than one yearand is short-term if the holding period for theasset is one year or less. You must exclude thedate you purchase your units to determine yourholding period. However, if you receive a capitalgain dividend from your trust and sell your unitat a loss after holding it for six months or less, theloss will be recharacterized as long-term capitalloss to the extent of the capital gain dividendreceived. The tax rates for capital gains realizedfrom assets held for one year or less are generallythe same as for ordinary income. The InternalRevenue Code treats certain capital gains as ordi-nary income in special situations.

Ordinary income dividends received by anindividual unitholder from a regulated investmentcompany such as your trust are generally taxed atthe same rates that apply to net capital gain (asdiscussed above), provided certain holding periodrequirements are satisfied and provided the divi-dends are attributable to qualifying dividendsreceived by your trust itself. Distributions withrespect to shares in real estate investment trustsare qualifying dividends only in limited circum-stances. Your trust will provide notice to itsunitholders of the amount of any distributionwhich may be taken into account as a dividendwhich is eligible for the capital gains tax rates.

IInn--KKiinndd DDiissttrriibbuuttiioonnss.. Under certain circum-stances, as described in this prospectus, you mayreceive an in-kind distribution of trust securities

104 Understanding Your Investment

when you redeem units or when your trust termi-nates. This distribution will be treated as a salefor federal income tax purposes and you will gen-erally recognize gain or loss, generally based onthe value at that time of the securities and theamount of cash received. The Internal RevenueService could however assert that a loss could notbe currently deducted.

RRoolllloovveerrss aanndd EExxcchhaannggeess.. If you elect to haveyour proceeds from your trust rolled over into afuture trust, the exchange would generally be con-sidered a sale for federal income tax purposes.

DDeedduuccttiibbiilliittyy ooff TTrruusstt EExxppeennsseess.. Expensesincurred and deducted by your trust will generallynot be treated as income taxable to you. In somecases, however, you may be required to treat yourportion of these trust expenses as income. In thesecases you may be able to take a deduction forthese expenses. However, certain miscellaneousitemized deductions, such as investment expenses,may be deducted by individuals only to the extentthat all of these deductions exceed 2% of theindividual's adjusted gross income. Some individ-uals may also be subject to further limitations onthe amount of their itemized deductions, depend-ing on their income.

FFoorreeiiggnn TTaaxx CCrreeddiitt.. If your trust invests inany foreign securities, the tax statement that youreceive may include an item showing foreign taxesyour trust paid to other countries. In this case,dividends taxed to you will include your share ofthe taxes your trust paid to other countries. Youmay be able to deduct or receive a tax credit foryour share of these taxes.

Investments in Certain Foreign Corporations.If your trust holds an equity interest in any “passiveforeign investment companies” (“PFICs”), whichare generally certain foreign corporations that

receive at least 75% of their annual gross incomefrom passive sources (such as interest, dividends,certain rents and royalties or capital gains) or thathold at least 50% of their assets in investmentsproducing such passive income, the trust could besubject to U.S. federal income tax and additionalinterest charges on gains and certain distributionswith respect to those equity interests, even if all theincome or gain is timely distributed to itsunitholders. Your trust will not be able to passthrough to its unitholders any credit or deductionfor such taxes. Your trust may be able to make anelection that could ameliorate these adverse taxconsequences. In this case, your trust would recog-nize as ordinary income any increase in the value ofsuch PFIC shares, and as ordinary loss any decreasein such value to the extent it did not exceed priorincreases included in income. Under this election,your trust might be required to recognize in a yearincome in excess of its distributions from PFICsand its proceeds from dispositions of PFIC stockduring that year, and such income would neverthe-less be subject to the distribution requirement andwould be taken into account for purposes of the4% excise tax. Dividends paid by PFICs are nottreated as qualified dividend income.

FFoorreeiiggnn IInnvveessttoorrss.. If you are a foreign investor(i.e., an investor other than a U.S. citizen or resi-dent or a U.S. corporation, partnership, estate ortrust), you should be aware that, generally, subjectto applicable tax treaties, distributions from yourtrust will be characterized as dividends for federalincome tax purposes (other than dividends whichyour trust properly reports as capital gain divi-dends) and will be subject to U.S. income taxes,including withholding taxes, subject to certainexceptions described below. However, distributionsreceived by a foreign investor from your trust thatare properly reported by your trust as capital gaindividends may not be subject to U.S. federalincome taxes, including withholding taxes, provided

Distributions from yourtrust that are properly reported by the trust as aninterest-related dividend attributable to certaininterest income received by the trust or as a short-term capital gain dividend attributable to certainnet short-term capital gain income received by thetrust may not be subject to U.S. federal incometaxes, including withholding taxes when receivedby certain foreign investors, provided that the trustmakes certain elections and certain other condi-tions are met. In addition, distributions in respectof units may be subject to a U.S. withholding taxof 30% in the case of distributions to (i) certainnon-U.S. financial institutions that have notentered into an agreement with the U.S. Treasuryto collect and disclose certain information and arenot resident in a jurisdiction that has entered intosuch an agreement with the U.S. Treasury and (ii)certain other non-U.S. entities that do not providecertain certifications and information about theentity's U.S. owners. Dispositions of units bysuch persons may be subject to such withholdingafter December 31, 2018. You should also consultyour tax advisor with respect to other U.S. taxwithholding and reporting requirements.

TTrruusstt SSttaattuuss.. The trust is considered a grantortrust under federal income tax laws. In grantortrusts, investors are deemed for federal income taxpurposes, to own the underlying assets of the trustdirectly. All taxability issues are taken intoaccount at the unit owner level. Income passesthrough to unit owners as realized by the trust.

Income is reported gross of expenses. Expensesare separately reported based on a percentage ofdistributions. Generally, the cash received by unitowners is the net of income and expenses reported.

The grantor trust structure is a widely heldfixed investment trust (“WHFIT”), and fallsunder what is commonly referred to as theWHFIT regulations.

If your trust is at all times operated in accor-dance with the documents establishing your trustand certain requirements of federal income taxlaw are met, your trust will not be taxed as a cor-poration for federal income tax purposes. As aunit owner, you will be treated as the owner of apro rata portion of each of the Trust Assets, andas such you will be considered to have received apro rata share of income (e.g., dividends and capi-tal gains, if any) from each Trust Asset when suchincome would be considered to be received byyou if you directly owned the Trust Assets. Thisis true even if you elect to have your distributionsreinvested into additional units. In addition, theincome from Trust Assets that you must take intoaccount for federal income tax purposes is notreduced by amounts used to pay sales charges ortrust expenses. Income from the trust may also besubject to a 3.8 percent “medicare tax.” This tax

generally applies to your net investment income ifyour adjusted gross income exceeds certain thresh-old amounts, which are $250,000 in the case ofmarried couples filing joint returns and $200,000in the case of single individuals. Interest that isexcluded from gross income, including exempt-interest dividends from any RIC Shares held bythe trust, are generally not included in your netinvestment income for purposes of this tax.

YYoouurr TTaaxx BBaassiiss aanndd IInnccoommee oorr LLoossss uuppoonnDDiissppoossiittiioonn. If your trust disposes of Trust Assets,you will generally recognize gain or loss. If youdispose of your units or redeem your units forcash, you will also generally recognize gain or loss.To determine the amount of this gain or loss, youmust subtract your tax basis in the related TrustAssets from your share of the total amountreceived in the transaction. You can generallydetermine your initial tax basis in each Trust Assetby apportioning the cost of your units, includingsales charges, among the Trust Assets ratablyaccording to their values on the date you acquireyour units. In certain circumstances, however, youmay have to adjust your tax basis after you acquireyour units (for example, in the case of certain divi-dends that exceed a corporation’s accumulatedearnings and profits, or in the case of certain dis-tributions with respect to any REIT Shares thatrepresent a return of capital, as discussed below).

If you are an individual, the maximum mar-ginal stated federal tax rate for net capital gain isgenerally 20% for taxpayers in the 39.6% taxbracket, 15% for taxpayers in the 25%, 28%, 33%and 35% tax brackets and 0% for taxpayers in the10% and 15% tax brackets. Note that some por-tion of any capital gain dividends you receivemight be attributable to a RIC’s interest in a mas-ter limited partnership which may be subject to amaximum marginal stated federal income tax rateof 28%, rather than the rates set forth above.

In addition, capital gain received from assets heldfor more than one year that is considered “unrecap-tured section 1250 gain” (which may be the case,for example, with some capital gains attributable toequity interests in real estate investment trusts thatconstitute interests in entities treated as real estateinvestment trusts for federal income tax purposes)is taxed at a maximum stated tax rate of 25%. Inthe case of capital gain dividends, the determina-tion of which portion of the capital gain dividend,if any, is subject to the 28% tax rate or the 25%tax rate, will be made based on rules prescribed bythe United States Treasury. Capital gains may alsobe subject to the “medicare tax” described above.

Net capital gain equals net long-term capitalgain minus net short-term capital loss for the tax-able year. Capital gain or loss is long-term if theholding period for the asset is more than one yearand is short-term if the holding period for theasset is one year or less. You must exclude the dateyou purchase your units to determine your hold-ing period. The tax rates for capital gains realizedfrom assets held for one year or less are generallythe same as for ordinary income. The InternalRevenue Code, however, treats certain capitalgains as ordinary income in special situations.

DDiivviiddeennddss ffrroomm SSttoocckkss.. Certain dividendsreceived with respect to the Stocks held by thetrust, if any, may qualify to be taxed at the samerates that apply to net capital gain (as discussedabove), provided certain holding period require-ments are satisfied.

DDiivviiddeennddss ffrroomm RRIICC SShhaarreess aanndd RREEIITT SShhaarreess.Some dividends on REIT Shares or RIC Shares, ifany, held by the trust, may be reported by theREIT or RIC as “capital gain dividends,” generallytaxable to you as long-term capital gains. Somedividends on RIC Shares may qualify as “exempt-interest dividends,” which generally are excluded

from your gross income for federal income tax pur-poses. Some or all of the exempt-interest divi-dends, however may be taken into account indetermining your alternative minimum tax, andmay have other tax consequences (e.g., they mayaffect the amount of your social security benefitsthat are taxed). Other dividends on the REITShares or the RIC Shares will generally be taxableto you as ordinary income. Certain ordinaryincome dividends from a RIC may qualify to betaxed at the same rates that apply to net capitalgain (as discussed above), provided certain holdingperiod requirements are satisfied and provided thedividends are attributable to qualifying dividendsreceived by the RIC itself. Regulated investmentcompanies are required to provide notice to theirshareholders of the amount of any distribution thatmay be taken into account as a dividend that is eli-gible for the capital gains tax rates. In limited cir-cumstances, some of the ordinary income divi-dends from a REIT may also qualify to be taxed atthe same rates that apply to net capital gains. Ifyou hold a unit for six months or less or if yourtrust holds a RIC Share or REIT Share for sixmonths or less, any loss incurred by you related tothe disposition of such RIC Share or REIT Sharewill be disallowed to the extent of the exempt-interest dividends you received. To the extent, ifany, it is not disallowed, it will be treated as a long-term capital loss to the extent of any long-termcapital gain distributions received (or deemed tohave been received) with respect to such RIC Shareor REIT Share. Distributions of income or capitalgains declared on the REIT Shares or the RICShares in October, November or December will bedeemed to have been paid to you on December 31of the year they are declared, even when paid bythe REIT or the RIC during the following January.

However, a corporation generally will notbe entitled to the dividends received deductionwith respect to dividends from most foreign cor-porations or from REITs or RICs.

Under certain circum-stances as described in this prospectus, you mayrequest an In-Kind Distribution of Trust Assetswhen you redeem your units or at your trust's ter-mination. By electing to receive an In-KindDistribution, you will receive Trust Assets plus,possibly, cash. You will not recognize gain or lossif you only receive whole Trust Assets in exchangefor the identical amount of your pro rata portionof the same Trust Assets held by your trust.However, if you also receive cash in exchange fora Trust Asset or a fractional portion of a TrustAsset, you will generally recognize gain or lossbased on the difference between the amount ofcash you receive and your tax basis in such TrustAsset or fractional portion.

If you elect to haveyour proceeds from your trust rolled over into afuture trust, it is considered a sale for federalincome tax purposes and any gain on the sale willbe treated as a capital gain, and any loss will betreated as a capital loss.

Generally, for federal income tax pur-poses, you must take into account your full prorata share of your trust’s income, even if some ofthat income is used to pay trust expenses. Youmay deduct your pro rata share of each expensepaid by your trust to the same extent as if youdirectly paid the expense. You may be required totreat some or all of the expenses of your trust asmiscellaneous itemized deductions. Individualsmay only deduct certain miscellaneous itemizeddeductions to the extent they exceed 2% ofadjusted gross income. Some individuals mayalso be subject to further limitations on theamount of their itemized deductions, dependingon their income.

If any of the RICs pay exempt-interest divi-dends, which are treated as tax-exempt interest forfederal income tax purposes, you will not be ableto deduct some of your share of the trust expens-es.

for U.S. tax purposes. Distributions in respect ofunits may be subject to a U.S. withholding tax of30% in the case of distributions to (i) certain non-U.S. financial institutions that have not enteredinto an agreement with the U.S. Treasury to collectand disclose certain information and are not resi-dent in a jurisdiction that has entered into such anagreement with the U.S. Treasury and (ii) certainother non-U.S. entities that do not provide certaincertifications and information about the entity’sU.S. owners. Dispositions of units by such personsmay be subject to such withholding afterDecember 31, 2018. You should also consult yourtax advisor with respect to other U.S. tax withhold-ing and reporting requirements.

Some distributions by your trust may be sub-ject to foreign withholding taxes. Any incomewithheld will still be treated as income to you.Under the grantor trust rules, you are consideredto have paid directly your share of any foreigntaxes that are paid. Therefore, for U.S. tax pur-poses, you may be entitled to a foreign tax creditor deduction for those foreign taxes.

Under certain circumstances, a RIC may electto pass through to its shareholders certain foreigntaxes paid by the RIC. If a RIC makes this elec-tion with respect to RIC Shares, you must includein your income for federal income tax purposesyour portion of such taxes and you may be enti-tled to a credit or deduction for such taxes.

If any U.S. investor is treated as owningdirectly or indirectly 10 percent or more of thecombined voting power of the stock of a foreigncorporation, and all U.S. shareholders of that cor-poration collectively own more than 50 percent ofthe vote or value of the stock of that corporation,the foreign corporation may be treated as a con-trolled foreign corporation (CFC). If you own 10percent or more of a CFC (through your trust

and in combination with your other investments)or possibly if your trust owns 10 percent or moreof a CFC, you will be required to include certaintypes of the CFC’s income in your taxable incomefor federal income tax purposes whether or notsuch income is distributed to your trust or to you.

A foreign corporation will generally be treatedas a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”)if 75 percent or more of its income is passiveincome or if 50 percent or more of its assets areheld to produce passive income. If your trust pur-chases shares in a PFIC, you may be subject toU.S. federal income tax on a portion of certaindistributions or on gains from the disposition ofsuch shares at rates that were applicable in prioryears and any gain may be recharacterized as ordi-nary income that is not eligible for the lower netcapital gains tax rate. Additional charges in thenature of interest may also be imposed on you.Certain elections may be available with respect toPFICs that would limit these consequences.However, these elections would require you toinclude certain income of the PFIC in your tax-able income even if not distributed to the trust orto you, or require you to annually recognize asordinary income any increase in the value of theshares of the PFIC, thus requiring you to recog-nize income for federal income tax purposes inexcess of your actual distributions from PFICs andproceeds from dispositions of PFIC stock during aparticular year. Dividends paid by PFICs are noteligible to be taxed at the net capital gains tax rate.

The trust seeks to provide above average totalreturn primarily through capital appreciation.There is no assurance the trust will achieve itsobjective.

PPRRIINNCCIIPPAALL IINNVVEESSTTMMEENNTT SSTTRRAATTEEGGYY

The trust seeks to achieve its objective byinvesting in a portfolio of stocks of companiesderiving a substantial portion of their revenuesworldwide that Pence Capital Management, LLC(the “Portfolio Consultant”) believes are involvedin aspects of the transformation of consumerbehavior and a shift in how people transact pur-chases. Today, shopping has become easier asinnovations in electronics and information tech-nology provide consumers access to a wide rangeof products from the convenience of almost any-where and the ease of using their smart phonesand tablets. Consumers can fulfill desires sponta-neously without going to brick and mortarstores. Consumers shop online using smartphones and tablets, connect wirelessly fromalmost anywhere, are able to purchase almost anyproduct online, pay by credit cards and haveproducts delivered to their doorsteps.

From these companies involved in aspects ofthis shift in how people transact purchases, securi-ties were selected for the trust’s portfolio by ana-lyzing factors including expected market domi-nance over the next three to five years, relativesize within industry sectors based on market capi-talization, steadiness of past earnings growth ratesand revenue growth, strength of earnings and rev-enue projects, balance sheet strength, valuationand levels of cash holdings.

HHOOWW TTOO BBUUYY UUNNIITTSS

You can buy units of the trust on any busi-ness day the New York Stock Exchange is open bycontacting your financial professional. Unitprices are available daily on the Internet atwwwwww..AAAAMMlliivvee..ccoomm.. The public offering price ofunits includes:

• the net asset value per unit plus

• organization costs plus

• the sales fee.

The “net asset value per unit” is the value ofthe securities, cash and other assets in the trustreduced by the liabilities of the trust divided bythe total units outstanding. We often refer to thepublic offering price of units as the “offer price”or “purchase price.” The offer price will be effec-tive for all orders received prior to the close ofregular trading on the New York Stock Exchange(normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time). If we receiveyour order prior to the close of regular trading onthe New York Stock Exchange or authorizedfinancial professionals receive your order prior tothat time and properly transmit the order to usby the time that we designate, then you willreceive the price computed on the date of receipt.If we receive your order after the close of regulartrading on the New York Stock Exchange, ifauthorized financial professionals receive yourorder after that time or if orders are received bysuch persons and are not transmitted to us by thetime that we designate, then you will receive theprice computed on the date of the next deter-mined offer price provided that your order isreceived in a timely manner on that date. It isthe responsibility of the authorized financial pro-fessional to transmit the orders that they receive

to us in a timely manner. Certain broker-dealersmay charge a transaction or other fee for process-ing unit purchase orders.

VVaalluuee ooff tthhee SSeeccuurriittiieess.. We determine thevalue of the securities as of the close of regulartrading on the New York Stock Exchange on eachday that exchange is open. We generally deter-mine the value of securities using the last saleprice for securities traded on a national securitiesexchange. For this purpose, the trustee providesus closing prices from a reporting serviceapproved by us. In some cases we will price asecurity based on its fair value after consideringappropriate factors relevant to the value of thesecurity. We will only do this if a security is notprincipally traded on a national securitiesexchange or if the market quotes are unavailableor inappropriate.

We determined the initial prices of the securi-ties shown under “Portfolio” in this prospectus asdescribed above at the close of regular trading onthe New York Stock Exchange on the businessday before the date of this prospectus. On thefirst day we sell units we will compute the unitprice as of the close of regular trading on the NewYork Stock Exchange or the time the registrationstatement filed with the Securities and ExchangeCommission becomes effective, if later.

OOrrggaanniizzaattiioonn CCoossttss.. During the initial offer-ing period, part of the value of the units repre-sents an amount that will pay the costs of creatingyour trust. These costs include the costs ofpreparing the registration statement and legaldocuments, federal and state registration fees, thePortfolio Consultant’s security selection fee, theinitial fees and expenses of the trustee and the ini-tial audit. Your trust will sell securities to reim-burse us for these costs at the end of the initialoffering period or after six months, if earlier.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR INVESTMENT

The value of your units will decline when thetrust pays these costs.

SSaalleess FFeeee.. The maximum sales fee is shownunder “Fees and Expenses” for your trust and is1.85% of the public offering price per unit at thetime of purchase.

You pay a fee in connection with purchasingunits. We refer to this fee as the “transactionalsales fee”. The transactional sales fee has both aninitial and a deferred component. The transac-tional sales fee equals 1.35% of the public offer-ing price per unit based on a $10 public offeringprice per unit. The percentage amount of thetransactional sales fee is based on the unit priceon your trust’s inception date. The transactionalsales fee equals the difference between the totalsales fee and the creation and development fee.As a result, the percentage and dollar amount ofthe transactional sales fee will vary as the publicoffering price per unit varies. The transactionalsales fee does not include the creation and devel-opment fee which is described under “Fees andExpenses” for your trust.

You pay the initial sales fee, if any, at the timeyou buy units. The initial sales fee is the differ-ence between the total sales fee percentage (maxi-mum of 1.85% of the public offering price perunit) and the sum of the remaining fixed dollardeferred sales fee and the total fixed dollar cre-ation and development fee. The initial sales feewill be 0.00% of the public offering price per unitat a public offering price per unit of $10. If thepublic offering price per unit exceeds $10, youwill be charged an initial sales fee equal to the dif-ference between the total sales fee percentage(maximum of 1.85% of the public offering priceper unit) and the sum of the remaining fixed dol-lar deferred sales fee and total fixed dollar creationand development fee. The deferred sales fee is

If you redeem or sell your units prior tocollection of the total deferred sales fee, you willpay any remaining deferred sales fee uponredemption or sale of your units.

Since the deferred sales fee and creation anddevelopment fee are fixed dollar amounts perunit, your trust must charge these amounts perunit regardless of any decrease in net asset value.As a result, if the public offering price per unitfalls to less than $10 (resulting in the maximumsales fee percentage being a dollar amount that isless than the combined fixed dollar amounts ofthe deferred sales fee and creation and develop-ment fee) your initial sales fee will be a creditequal to the amount by which these fixed dollarfees exceed the sales fee at the time you buy units.In such a situation, the value of securities per unitwould exceed the public offering price per unit bythe amount of the initial sales fee credit and thevalue of those securities will fluctuate, whichcould result in a benefit or detriment to unithold-ers that purchase units at that price. The initialsales fee credit is paid by the sponsor and is notpaid by the trust.

If you purchase units after the last deferredsales fee payment has been assessed, the secondarymarket sales fee is equal to 1.85% of the publicoffering price and does not include deferred pay-ments (i.e. unitholders who buy in the secondarymarket after collection of the deferred sales feesare not charged deferred sales fees).

It isyour financial professional’s responsibility toalert us of any discount when you order units.Except as expressly provided herein, you maynot combine discounts. Since the deferred salesfee and the creation and development fee arefixed dollar amounts per unit, your trust mustcharge these fees per unit regardless of any dis-counts. However, if you are eligible to receive adiscount such that your total sales fee is less thanthe fixed dollar amounts of the deferred sales feeand the creation and development fee, we willcredit you the difference between your total salesfee and these fixed dollar fees at the time youbuy units.

Fee Accounts. Investors may purchase unitsthrough registered investment advisers, certifiedfinancial planners or registered broker-dealerswho in each case either charge investor accounts(“Fee Accounts”) periodic fees for brokerage serv-ices, financial planning, investment advisory orasset management services, or provide such serv-ices in connection with an investment accountfor which a comprehensive “wrap fee” charge(“Wrap Fee”) is imposed. You should consultyour financial advisor to determine whether youcan benefit from these accounts. To purchaseunits in these Fee Accounts, your financial advi-sor must purchase units designated with one ofthe Fee Account CUSIP numbers, if available.Please contact your financial advisor for moreinformation. If units of the trust are purchasedfor a Fee Account and the units are subject to aWrap Fee in such Fee Account (i.e., the trust is“Wrap Fee Eligible”) then investors may be eligi-ble to purchase units of the trust in these FeeAccounts that are not subject to the transactionalsales fee but will be subject to the creation anddevelopment fee that is retained by the sponsor.For example, this table illustrates the sales fee you

will pay as a percentage of the initial $10 publicoffering price per unit (the percentage will varywith the unit price).

Initial sales fee 0.00%Deferred sales fee 0.00%

Transactional sales fee 0.00%Creation and development fee 0.50%

Total sales fee 0.50%

This discount applies only during the initialoffering period. Certain Fee Account investorsmay be assessed transaction or other fees on thepurchase and/or redemption of units by their bro-ker-dealer or other processing organizations forproviding certain transaction or account activities.We reserve the right to limit or deny purchases ofunits in Fee Accounts by investors or selling firmswhose frequent trading activity is determined tobe detrimental to the trust.

Employees. We waive the transactional salesfee for purchases made by officers, directors andemployees (and immediate family members) ofthe sponsor and its affiliates. These purchases arenot subject to the transactional sales fee but willbe subject to the creation and development fee.We also waive a portion of the sales fee for pur-chases made by officers, directors and employees(and immediate family members) of selling firms.These purchases are made at the public offeringprice per unit less the applicable regular dealerconcession. Immediate family members for thepurposes of this section include your spouse,children (including step-children) under the ageof 21 living in the same household, and parents(including step-parents). These discounts applyto initial offering period and secondary marketpurchases. All employee discounts are subject tothe policies of the related selling firm, includingbut not limited to, householding policies or limi-tations. Only officers, directors and employees

Dividend Reinvestment Plan. We do notcharge any sales fee when you reinvest distribu-tions from your trust into additional units of thetrust. This sales fee discount applies to initialoffering period and secondary market purchases.Since the deferred sales fee and the creation anddevelopment fee are fixed dollar amounts perunit, your trust must charge these fees per unitregardless of this discount. If you elect the distri-bution reinvestment plan, we will credit you withadditional units with a dollar value sufficient tocover the amount of any remaining deferred salesfee and creation and development fee that will becollected on such units at the time of reinvest-ment. The dollar value of these units will fluctu-ate over time.

If you redeem your units, the trustee will gen-erally send you a payment for your units no laterthan seven days after it receives all necessary doc-umentation (this will usually only take two busi-ness days). The only time the trustee can delayyour payment is if the New York Stock Exchangeis closed (other than weekends or holidays), theSecurities and Exchange Commission determinesthat trading on that exchange is restricted or anemergency exists making sale or evaluation of thesecurities not reasonably practicable, and for anyother period that the Securities and ExchangeCommission permits.

“Essential Information” in the “InvestmentSummary” section of this prospectus. We generallybase the estimate of the income the trust mayreceive on annualizing the most recent ordinarydividend declared by an issuer (or adding the mostrecent interim and final dividends declared for cer-tain foreign issuers) or on scheduled income pay-ments. However, dividend conventions for certaincompanies and/or certain countries differ fromthose typically used in the United States and in cer-tain instances, dividends paid or declared over sev-eral years or other periods were used to estimateannual distributions. Due to this and various otherfactors, actual income payments received by thetrust will most likely differ from the most recentannualized dividends or scheduled income pay-ments. The actual net annual distributions youwill receive will vary with changes in the trust’s feesand expenses, in income payments received andwith the sale of securities. The estimated net annu-al distributions for subsequent years are expected tobe less than estimated distributions for the firstyear because a portion of the securities included inthe trust portfolio will be sold during the first yearto pay for organization costs, the creation anddevelopment fee and the deferred sales fee.

RReeppoorrttss. The trustee or your financial profes-sional will make available to you a statementshowing income and other receipts of your trustfor each distribution.

All investments involve risk. This sectiondescribes the main risks that can impact the valueof the securities in your portfolio. You should

understand these risks before you invest. If thevalue of the securities falls, the value of your unitswill also fall. We cannot guarantee that your trustwill achieve its objective or that your investmentreturn will be positive over any period.

MMaarrkkeett RRiisskk.. Market risk is the risk that thevalue of the securities in your trust will fluctuate.This could cause the value of your units to fallbelow your original purchase price. Market valuefluctuates in response to various factors. Thesecan include changes in interest rates, inflation, thefinancial condition of a security’s issuer, percep-tions of the issuer, or ratings on a security. Eventhough we supervise your portfolio, you shouldremember that we do not manage your portfolio.Your trust will not sell a security solely because themarket value falls as is possible in a managed fund.

DDiivviiddeenndd PPaayymmeenntt RRiisskk.. Dividend paymentrisk is the risk that an issuer of a security isunwilling or unable to pay income on a security.Stocks represent ownership interests in the issuersand are not obligations of the issuers. Commonstockholders have a right to receive dividends onlyafter the company has provided for payment of itscreditors, bondholders and preferred stockholders.Common stocks do not assure dividend pay-ments. Dividends are paid only when declared byan issuer’s board of directors and the amount ofany dividend may vary over time.

The trust invests significantly in securities ofcompanies in the iinnffoorrmmaattiioonn tteecchhnnoollooggyy sector.Technology companies are generally subject tothe risks of rapidly changing technologies; shortproduct life cycles; fierce competition; aggressivepricing; frequent introduction of new orenhanced products; the loss of patent, copyrightand trademark protections; cyclical market pat-terns; evolving industry standards; and frequentnew product introductions. Technology compa-nies may be smaller and less experienced compa-nies, with limited product lines, markets or finan-cial resources. Technology company stocks haveexperienced extreme price and volume fluctua-tions that are often unrelated to their operatingperformance, and have lately experienced signifi-cant market declines in their share values. Also,the stocks of many internet companies haveexceptionally high price-to-earnings ratios withlittle or no earnings histories.

FFoorreeiiggnn IIssssuueerr RRiisskk.. An investment in securi-ties of foreign issuers involves certain risks that aredifferent in some respects from an investment insecurities of domestic issuers. These include risksassociated with future political and economicdevelopments, international trade conditions, for-eign withholding taxes, liquidity concerns, curren-cy fluctuations, volatility, restrictions on foreigninvestments and exchange of securities, potentialfor expropriation of assets, confiscatory taxation,difficulty in obtaining or enforcing a court judg-ment, potential inability to collect when a compa-ny goes bankrupt and economic, political orsocial instability. Moreover, individual foreigneconomies may differ favorably or unfavorablyfrom the U.S. economy for reasons including dif-ferences in growth of gross domestic product,rates of inflation, capital reinvestment, resources,self-sufficiency and balance of payments positions.There may be less publicly available informationabout a foreign issuer than is available from a

domestic issuer as a result of different accounting,auditing and financial reporting standards. Someforeign markets are less liquid than U.S. marketswhich could cause securities to be bought at ahigher price or sold at a lower price than wouldbe the case in a highly liquid market.

Securities of certain foreign issuers may bedenominated or quoted in currencies other thanthe U.S. dollar. Foreign issuers also make pay-ments and conduct business in foreign currencies.Many foreign currencies have fluctuated widely invalue against the U.S. dollar for various economicand political reasons. Changes in foreign curren-cy exchange rates may affect the value of foreignsecurities and dividend payments. Generally,when the U.S. dollar rises in value against a for-eign currency, a security denominated in that cur-rency loses value because the currency is worthfewer U.S. dollars. Conversely, when the U.S.dollar decreases in value against a foreign currency,a security denominated in that currency gainsvalue because the currency is worth more U.S.dollars. The U.S. dollar value of income pay-ments on foreign securities will fluctuate similarlywith changes in foreign currency values.

Certain foreign securities may be held in theform of American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”),Global Depositary Receipts (“GDRs”), or othersimilar receipts. Depositary receipts representreceipts for foreign securities deposited with acustodian (which may include the trustee of thetrust). Depository receipts may not be denomi-nated in the same currency as the securities intowhich they may be converted. ADRs typicallytrade in the U.S. in U.S. dollars and are regis-tered with the Securities and ExchangeCommission. GDRs are similar to ADRs, butGDRs typically trade outside of the U.S. andoutside of the country of the issuer in the curren-cy of the country where the GDR trades.

Depositary receipts generally involve most of thesame types of risks as foreign securities helddirectly but typically also involve additionalexpenses associated with the cost of the custodi-an’s services. Some depositary receipts may expe-rience less liquidity than the underlying securitiestraded in their home market. Certain depositaryreceipts are unsponsored (i.e. issued without theparticipation or involvement of the issuer of theunderlying security). The issuers of unsponsoreddepositary receipts are not obligated to discloseinformation that may be considered material inthe U.S. Therefore, there may be less informa-tion available regarding these issuers which canimpact the relationship between certain informa-tion impacting a security and the market value ofthe depositary receipts.

SSmmaallll aanndd MMiidd--SSiizzee CCoommppaanniieess.. The trustmay invest in securities issued by small and mid-size companies. The share prices of these compa-nies are often more volatile than those of largercompanies as a result of several factors commonto many such issuers, including limited tradingvolumes, products or financial resources, man-agement inexperience and less publicly availableinformation.

LLeeggiissllaattiioonn//LLiittiiggaattiioonn.. From time to time,various legislative initiatives are proposed in theUnited States and abroad which may have a nega-tive impact on certain of the companies represent-ed in the trust. In addition, litigation regardingany of the issuers of the securities or of the indus-tries represented by these issuers may negativelyimpact the share prices of these securities. Noone can predict what impact any pending orthreatened litigation will have on the share pricesof the securities.

security is limited or absent. No one can guar-antee that a liquid trading market will exist forany security.

As a result, certainbroker-dealers and other selling firms may waiveor refuse payment of all or a portion of the regu-lar concession or agency commission and/or vol-ume concession described above and instruct thesponsor to retain such amounts rather than pay orallow the amounts to such firm.

We currently provide, at our own expenseand out of our own profits, additional compensa-tion and benefits to broker-dealers who sell unitsof this trust and our other products. This com-pensation is intended to result in additional salesof our products and/or compensate broker-dealers

and financial advisors for past sales. A number offactors are considered in determining whether topay these additional amounts. Such factors mayinclude, but are not limited to, the level or typeof services provided by the intermediary, the levelor expected level of sales of our products by theintermediary or its agents, the placing of ourproducts on a preferred or recommended productlist and access to an intermediary’s personnel. Wemay make these payments for marketing, promo-tional or related expenses, including, but not lim-ited to, expenses of entertaining retail customersand financial advisors, advertising, sponsorship ofevents or seminars, obtaining information aboutthe breakdown of unit sales among an intermedi-ary’s representatives or offices, obtaining shelfspace in broker-dealer firms and similar activitiesdesigned to promote the sale of our products. Wemake such payments to a substantial majority ofintermediaries that sell our products. We mayalso make certain payments to, or on behalf of,intermediaries to defray a portion of their costsincurred for the purpose of facilitating unit sales,such as the costs of developing or purchasingtrading systems to process unit trades. Paymentsof such additional compensation described in thisparagraph and the volume concessions describedabove, some of which may be characterized as“revenue sharing,” may create an incentive forfinancial intermediaries and their agents to sell orrecommend our products, including this trust,over other products. These arrangements will notchange the price you pay for your units.

We generally register units for sale in variousstates in the U.S. We do not register units forsale in any foreign country. This prospectus doesnot constitute an offer of units in any state orcountry where units cannot be offered or soldlawfully. We may reject any order for units inwhole or in part.

We may gain or lose money when we holdunits in the primary or secondary market due tofluctuations in unit prices. The gain or loss isequal to the difference between the price we payfor units and the price at which we sell or redeemthem. We may also gain or lose money when wedeposit securities to create units. The amount ofour profit or loss on the initial deposit of securitiesinto the trust is shown in the “Notes to Portfolio.”

TTAAXXEESS

This section summarizes some of the mainU.S. federal income tax consequences of owningunits of the trust. This section is current as of thedate of this prospectus. Tax laws and interpreta-tions change frequently, and these summaries donot describe all of the tax consequences to all tax-payers. For example, these summaries generallydo not describe your situation if you are a corpo-ration, a non-U.S. person, a broker/dealer, orother investor with special circumstances. Inaddition, this section does not describe your state,local or foreign tax consequences.

This federal income tax summary is based inpart on the advice and opinion of counsel to thesponsor. The Internal Revenue Service could dis-agree with any conclusions set forth in this sec-tion. In addition, our counsel was not asked toreview, and has not reached a conclusion withrespect to the federal income tax treatment of theassets to be deposited in your trust. This may notbe sufficient for you to use for the purpose ofavoiding penalties under federal tax law.

As with any investment, you should seekadvice based on your individual circumstancesfrom your own tax advisor.

AAsssseettss ooff tthhee TTrruusstt.. Your trust is expected tohold one or more of the following: (i) shares of

stock in corporations (the “Stocks”) that are treat-ed as equity for federal income tax purposes, (ii)equity interests (the “REIT Shares”) in real estateinvestment trusts (“REITs”) that constitute inter-ests in entities treated as real estate investmenttrusts for federal income tax purposes, and (iii)shares (the “RIC Shares”) in funds qualifying asregulated investment companies (“RICs”) that aretreated as interests in regulated investment com-panies for federal income tax purposes.

It is possible that your trust will also holdother assets, including assets that are treated dif-ferently for federal income tax purposes fromthose described above, in which case you willhave federal income tax consequences differentfrom or in addition to those described in this sec-tion. All of the assets held by your trust consti-tute the “Trust Assets.” Neither our counsel norwe have analyzed the proper federal income taxtreatment of the Trust Assets and thus neitherour counsel nor we have reached a conclusionregarding the federal income tax treatment of theTrust Assets.

TTrruusstt SSttaattuuss.. The trust is considered agrantor trust under federal income tax laws. Ingrantor trusts, investors are deemed for federalincome tax purposes, to own the underlying assetsof the trust directly. All taxability issues are takeninto account at the unit owner level. Incomepasses through to unit owners as realized by thetrust.

Income is reported gross of expenses.Expenses are separately reported based on a per-centage of distributions. Generally, the cashreceived by unit owners is the net of income andexpenses reported.

The grantor trust structure is a widely heldfixed investment trust (“WHFIT”), and falls

under what is commonly referred to as theWHFIT regulations.

If your trust is at all times operated in accor-dance with the documents establishing your trustand certain requirements of federal income taxlaw are met, your trust will not be taxed as a cor-poration for federal income tax purposes. As aunit owner, you will be treated as the owner of apro rata portion of each of the Trust Assets, andas such you will be considered to have received apro rata share of income (e.g., dividends and capi-tal gains, if any) from each Trust Asset when suchincome would be considered to be received byyou if you directly owned the Trust Assets. Thisis true even if you elect to have your distributionsreinvested into additional units. In addition, theincome from Trust Assets that you must take intoaccount for federal income tax purposes is notreduced by amounts used to pay sales charges ortrust expenses. Income from the trust may alsobe subject to a 3.8 percent “medicare tax.” Thistax generally applies to your net investmentincome if your adjusted gross income exceeds cer-tain threshold amounts, which are $250,000 inthe case of married couples filing joint returnsand $200,000 in the case of single individuals.Interest that is excluded from gross income,including exempt-interest dividends from anyRIC Shares held by the trust, are generally notincluded in your net investment income for pur-poses of this tax.

YYoouurr TTaaxx BBaassiiss aanndd IInnccoommee oorr LLoossss uuppoonnDDiissppoossiittiioonn.. If your trust disposes of Trust Assets,you will generally recognize gain or loss. If youdispose of your units or redeem your units forcash, you will also generally recognize gain or loss.To determine the amount of this gain or loss, youmust subtract your tax basis in the related TrustAssets from your share of the total amountreceived in the transaction. You can generally

Understanding Your Investment 19

determine your initial tax basis in each Trust Assetby apportioning the cost of your units, includingsales charges, among the Trust Assets ratablyaccording to their values on the date you acquireyour units. In certain circumstances, however, youmay have to adjust your tax basis after you acquireyour units (for example, in the case of certain divi-dends that exceed a corporation’s accumulatedearnings and profits, or in the case of certain dis-tributions with respect to any REIT Shares thatrepresent a return of capital, as discussed below).

If you are an individual, the maximum mar-ginal stated federal tax rate for net capital gain isgenerally 20% for taxpayers in the 39.6% taxbracket, 15% for taxpayers in the 25%, 28%,33% and 35% tax brackets and 0% for taxpayersin the 10% and 15% tax brackets. Note thatsome portion of any capital gain dividends youreceive might be attributable to a RIC’s interest ina master limited partnership which may be sub-ject to a maximum marginal stated federal incometax rate of 28%, rather than the rates set forthabove. In addition, capital gain received fromassets held for more than one year that is consid-ered “unrecaptured section 1250 gain” (whichmay be the case, for example, with some capitalgains attributable to equity interests in real estateinvestment trusts that constitute interests in enti-ties treated as real estate investment trusts for fed-eral income tax purposes) is taxed at a maximumstated tax rate of 25%. In the case of capital gaindividends, the determination of which portion ofthe capital gain dividend, if any, is subject to the28% tax rate or the 25% tax rate, will be madebased on rules prescribed by the United StatesTreasury. Capital gains may also be subject to the“medicare tax” described above.

Net capital gain equals net long-term capitalgain minus net short-term capital loss for the tax-able year. Capital gain or loss is long-term if the

holding period for the asset is more than one yearand is short-term if the holding period for theasset is one year or less. You must exclude the dateyou purchase your units to determine your hold-ing period. The tax rates for capital gains realizedfrom assets held for one year or less are generallythe same as for ordinary income. The InternalRevenue Code, however, treats certain capitalgains as ordinary income in special situations.

DDiivviiddeennddss ffrroomm SSttoocckkss.. Certain dividendsreceived with respect to the Stocks held by thetrust, if any, may qualify to be taxed at the samerates that apply to net capital gain (as discussedabove), provided certain holding period require-ments are satisfied.

DDiivviiddeennddss ffrroomm RRIICC SShhaarreess aanndd RREEIITT SShhaarreess..Some dividends on REIT Shares or RIC Shares, ifany, held by the trust, may be reported by theREIT or RIC as “capital gain dividends,” general-ly taxable to you as long-term capital gains. Somedividends on RIC Shares may qualify as “exempt-interest dividends,” which generally are excludedfrom your gross income for federal income taxpurposes. Some or all of the exempt-interest divi-dends, however may be taken into account indetermining your alternative minimum tax, andmay have other tax consequences (e.g., they mayaffect the amount of your social security benefitsthat are taxed). Other dividends on the REITShares or the RIC Shares will generally be taxableto you as ordinary income. Certain ordinaryincome dividends from a RIC may qualify to betaxed at the same rates that apply to net capitalgain (as discussed above), provided certain hold-ing period requirements are satisfied and providedthe dividends are attributable to qualifying divi-dends received by the RIC itself. Regulatedinvestment companies are required to providenotice to their shareholders of the amount of anydistribution that may be taken into account as a

dividend that is eligible for the capital gains taxrates. In limited circumstances, some of the ordi-nary income dividends from a REIT may alsoqualify to be taxed at the same rates that apply tonet capital gains. If you hold a unit for sixmonths or less or if your trust holds a RIC Shareor REIT Share for six months or less, any lossincurred by you related to the disposition of suchRIC Share or REIT Share will be disallowed tothe extent of the exempt-interest dividends youreceived. To the extent, if any, it is not disal-lowed, it will be treated as a long-term capital lossto the extent of any long-term capital gain distri-butions received (or deemed to have beenreceived) with respect to such RIC Share or REITShare. Distributions of income or capital gainsdeclared on the REIT Shares or the RIC Shares inOctober, November or December will be deemedto have been paid to you on December 31 of theyear they are declared, even when paid by theREIT or the RIC during the following January.

DDiivviiddeennddss RReecceeiivveedd DDeedduuccttiioonn.. Generally, adomestic corporation owning units in a trust maybe eligible for the dividends received deductionwith respect to such unit owner’s pro rata portionof certain types of dividends received by the trust.However, a corporation generally will not be enti-tled to the dividends received deduction withrespect to dividends from most foreign corpora-tions or from REITs or RICs. However, certaindividends on RIC Shares that are attributable todividends received by the RIC itself from certaindomestic corporations may be reported by theRIC as being eligible for the dividends receiveddeduction.

IInn--KKiinndd DDiissttrriibbuuttiioonnss.. Under certain circum-stances as described in this prospectus, you mayrequest an In-Kind Distribution of Trust Assetswhen you redeem your units or at your trust’s ter-mination. By electing to receive an In-Kind

Distribution, you will receive Trust Assets plus,possibly, cash. You will not recognize gain or lossif you only receive whole Trust Assets in exchangefor the identical amount of your pro rata portionof the same Trust Assets held by your trust.However, if you also receive cash in exchange fora Trust Asset or a fractional portion of a TrustAsset, you will generally recognize gain or lossbased on the difference between the amount ofcash you receive and your tax basis in such TrustAsset or fractional portion.

RRoolllloovveerrss aanndd EExxcchhaannggeess.. If you elect to haveyour proceeds from your trust rolled over into afuture trust, it is considered a sale for federalincome tax purposes and any gain on the sale willbe treated as a capital gain, and any loss will betreated as a capital loss. However, any loss youincur in connection with the exchange of yourunits of your trust for units of the next series willgenerally be disallowed with respect to thisdeemed sale and subsequent deemed repurchase,to the extent the two trusts have substantiallyidentical Trust Assets under the wash sale provi-sions of the Internal Revenue Code.

Generally, for federal income tax pur-poses, you must take into account your full prorata share of your trust’s income, even if some ofthat income is used to pay trust expenses. Youmay deduct your pro rata share of each expensepaid by your trust to the same extent as if youdirectly paid the expense. You may be required totreat some or all of the expenses of your trust asmiscellaneous itemized deductions. Individualsmay only deduct certain miscellaneous itemizeddeductions to the extent they exceed 2% ofadjusted gross income. Some individuals mayalso be subject to further limitations on theamount of their itemized deductions, dependingon their income.

If any of the RICs pay exempt-interest divi-dends, which are treated as tax-exempt interest forfederal income tax purposes, you will not be ableto deduct some of your share of the trust expens-es. In addition, you will not be able to deductsome of your interest expense for debt that youincur or continue to purchase or carry your units.

FFoorreeiiggnn IInnvveessttoorrss,, TTaaxxeess aanndd IInnvveessttmmeennttss..Distributions by your trust that are treated asU.S. source income (e.g., dividends received onStocks of domestic corporations) will generally besubject to U.S. income taxation and withholdingin the case of units held by nonresident alienindividuals, foreign corporations or other non-U.S. persons, subject to any applicable treaty. Ifyou are a foreign investor (i.e., an investor otherthan a U.S. citizen or resident or a U.S. corpora-tion, partnership, estate or trust), you may not besubject to U.S. federal income taxes, includingwithholding taxes, on some or all of the incomefrom your trust or on any gain from the sale orredemption of your units, provided that certainconditions are met. You should consult your taxadvisor with respect to the conditions you mustmeet in order to be exempt for U.S. tax purposes.Distributions in respect of units may be subject toa U.S. withholding tax of 30% in the case of dis-tributions to (i) certain non-U.S. financial institu-tions that have not entered into an agreementwith the U.S. Treasury to collect and disclose cer-tain information and are not resident in a juris-diction that has entered into such an agreementwith the U.S. Treasury and (ii) certain other non-U.S. entities that do not provide certain certifica-tions and information about the entity’s U.S.owners. Dispositions of units by such personsmay be subject to such withholding afterDecember 31, 2018. You should also consultyour tax advisor with respect to other U.S. taxwithholding and reporting requirements.

Some distributions by your trust may be sub-ject to foreign withholding taxes. Any incomewithheld will still be treated as income to you.Under the grantor trust rules, you are consideredto have paid directly your share of any foreigntaxes that are paid. Therefore, for U.S. tax pur-poses, you may be entitled to a foreign tax creditor deduction for those foreign taxes.

Under certain circumstances, a RIC may electto pass through to its shareholders certain foreigntaxes paid by the RIC. If a RIC makes this elec-tion with respect to RIC Shares, you must includein your income for federal income tax purposesyour portion of such taxes and you may be enti-tled to a credit or deduction for such taxes.

If any U.S. investor is treated as owningdirectly or indirectly 10 percent or more of thecombined voting power of the stock of a foreigncorporation, and all U.S. shareholders of that cor-poration collectively own more than 50 percent ofthe vote or value of the stock of that corporation,the foreign corporation may be treated as a con-trolled foreign corporation (CFC). If you own 10percent or more of a CFC (through your trustand in combination with your other investments)or possibly if your trust owns 10 percent or moreof a CFC, you will be required to include certaintypes of the CFC’s income in your taxable incomefor federal income tax purposes whether or notsuch income is distributed to your trust or to you.

A foreign corporation will generally be treatedas a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”)if 75 percent or more of its income is passiveincome or if 50 percent or more of its assets areheld to produce passive income. If your trust pur-chases shares in a PFIC, you may be subject toU.S. federal income tax on a portion of certaindistributions or on gains from the disposition ofsuch shares at rates that were applicable in prior

years and any gain may be recharacterized as ordi-nary income that is not eligible for the lower netcapital gains tax rate. Additional charges in thenature of interest may also be imposed on you.Certain elections may be available with respect toPFICs that would limit these consequences.However, these elections would require you toinclude certain income of the PFIC in your tax-able income even if not distributed to the trust orto you, or require you to annually recognize asordinary income any increase in the value of theshares of the PFIC, thus requiring you to recog-nize income for federal income tax purposes inexcess of your actual distributions from PFICs andproceeds from dispositions of PFIC stock during aparticular year. Dividends paid by PFICs are noteligible to be taxed at the net capital gains tax rate.

Under the existingincome tax laws of the State and City of NewYork, your trust will not be taxed as a corporationsubject to the New York state franchise tax or theNew York City general corporation tax.
