&lt;p style="font: bold 11pt/12pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 4pt 0 1pt"&gt;Portfolio Selection Process.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 2pt; text-indent: 0.25in"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;The
Trust is a unit investment trust that seeks to provide exposure to U.S. exchange-listed companies with strong balance sheets, above average
dividend yields and low volatility by investing in 30 companies that Value Line&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt; gives a #1 or #2 ranking for Safety&#x2122;.
Value Line&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt; ranks approximately 1,700 stocks which represent approximately 90% of the trading volume on all U.S. stock
exchanges. The Value Line&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt; Safety rank measures the total risk of a stock relative to the other stocks in the Value Line&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt;
universe. Value Line&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt; bases their Safety&#x2122; rankings from #1 through #5 on various factors including price stability
and financial strength. Stocks rated #1 or #2 tend to be less volatile than those rated #4 or #5.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 2pt; text-indent: 0.25in"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;The
stocks are selected by applying a disciplined investment strategy which adheres to pre-determined screens and factors. The strategy is
based on these steps:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 2pt 0.5in; text-indent: -0.5in"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Step
1:&lt;/b&gt; 	Begin with all stocks or American Depositary Receipts/ADRs that Value Line&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt; gives a #1 and #2 ranking for Safety&#x2122;
as of two business days prior to the date of the prospectus.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 2pt 0.5in; text-indent: -0.5in"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Step
2:&lt;/b&gt; 	Eliminate business development companies, regulated investment companies, limited partnerships, real estate investment trusts
and companies that do not trade on U.S. exchanges.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 2pt 0.5in; text-indent: -0.5in"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Step
3:&lt;/b&gt; 	Select companies with a market capitalization greater than $1 billion and a three month average daily dollar volume greater
than $5&#160;million.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 2pt 0.5in; text-indent: -0.5in"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Step
4:&lt;/b&gt; 	Select companies with an indicated dividend yield above 2%.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 2pt 0.5in; text-indent: -0.5in"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Step
5:&lt;/b&gt; 	Eliminate companies that do not have positive free cash flow after subtracting dividends and those that do not have return
on equity above 10%.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 2pt 0.5in; text-indent: -0.5in"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Step
6:&lt;/b&gt; 	Rank all of the remaining companies on price volatility and price to cash flow. These rankings are separate, but equally weighted.
Companies with lower price volatility and lower, but positive, price to cash flow receive higher rankings.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 2pt 0.5in; text-indent: -0.5in"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Step
7:&lt;/b&gt; 	Purchase an approximately equally weighted portfolio of the 30 eligible stocks with the best overall ranking subject to a maximum
of six stocks in any one of the major Global Industry Classification Standard (&#x201c;GICS&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt;&#x201d;&lt;sup&gt;)&lt;/sup&gt; market sectors.
If, through the selection process, the stocks selected would cause the Trust to exceed the six stocks in any one GICS&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt;
sector limitation, the lowest ranked stock or stocks from that GICS&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt; sector will be replaced with the next highest ranked
stock or stocks in any of the other GICS&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt; sectors. In the event of a tie, the stock with lower price to cash flow is selected.
If the sector maximum of six stocks does not result in a 30 stock portfolio, the sector restriction will be relaxed to seven stocks. If
this too does not result in a 30 stock portfolio it will be relaxed to eight stocks, then nine, and finally a maximum of ten stocks in
an any one of the major GICS&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt; market sectors. Should a 30 stock portfolio not exist at the ten stock maximum, the next
highest eligible dividend yielding names will be added until 30 eligible stocks are selected subject to a maximum of ten stocks in any
one sector.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 2pt; text-indent: 0.25in"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;Please
note that we applied the strategy which makes up the portfolio for the Trust at a particular time. If we create additional Units of the
Trust after the Initial Date of Deposit, we will deposit the Securities originally selected by applying the strategy on the Initial Date
of Deposit. This is true even if a later application of the strategy would have resulted in the selection of different securities. In
addition, companies which, based on publicly available information as of the date the Securities were selected, are the subject of an
announced business combination which we expect will happen within 12&#160;months of the date of this prospectus are not eligible for inclusion
in the Trust&#x2019;s portfolio.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 2pt; text-indent: 0.25in"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;The
Securities were selected as of the strategy&#x2019;s selection date using closing market prices on such date or, if a particular market
was not open for trading on such date, closing market prices on the day immediately prior to the selection date in which such market was
open. In addition, companies which, based on publicly available information on or before their respective selection date, are subject
to any of the limited circumstances which warrant removal of a Security from the Trust as described under &#x201c;Removing Securities from
the Trust&#x201d; are not eligible for inclusion in the Trust&#x2019;s portfolio.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 2pt; text-indent: 0.25in"&gt;While not a part of the Trust&#x2019;s portfolio
selection process, the Trust also invests in &lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;companies with various market capitalizations.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 2pt; text-indent: 0.25in"&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;As
with any similar investments, there can be no assurance that the objective of the Trust will be achieved. See &#x201c;Risk Factors&#x201d;
for a discussion of the risks of investing in the Trust.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
