Trust seeks income, with limited capital appreciation as a secondary objective. Under normal circumstances, the Trust will invest at least
80% of its assets in dividend-paying securities and at least 80% of its assets in securities included in the S&amp;amp;P 500 Dividend Aristocrats
Index as of the Initial Date of Deposit.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: bold 11pt/11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 4pt 0 1pt"&gt;Portfolio Selection Process.&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
Trust invests in a fixed portfolio of common stocks which are selected from the S&amp;amp;P 500 Dividend Aristocrats Index&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt;.
The index consists of companies from the S&amp;amp;P 500&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt; Index that have increased dividends every year for at least 25 consecutive
years.&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;Simultaneously,
the portfolio sells a LEAPS&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt; call option against each &lt;/span&gt;Common Stock &lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;(which
is known as a &#x201c;buy-write&#x201d; or &#x201c;covered call&#x201d; strategy). The writing (selling) of a call option generates income
in the form of a premium paid by the option buyer. The portfolio invests this income in U.S. Treasury notes and the interest received
from the notes is paid to Unit holders periodically.&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;Common
Stocks are selected for the portfolio based on the following criteria:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="font: 10pt/10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 100%; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0"&gt;&lt;tr style="vertical-align: top"&gt;
&lt;td style="width: 14pt"&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style="width: 7pt"&gt;&#x2022;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;Member of the S&amp;amp;P 500 Dividend Aristocrats Index&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/span&gt;;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;

&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="font: 10pt/10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 100%; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0"&gt;&lt;tr style="vertical-align: top"&gt;
&lt;td style="width: 14pt"&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style="width: 7pt"&gt;&#x2022;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;LEAPS&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt; availability; and&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;

&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="font: 10pt/10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 100%; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0"&gt;&lt;tr style="vertical-align: top"&gt;
&lt;td style="width: 14pt"&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td style="width: 7pt"&gt;&#x2022;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;Cash flow analysis and analyst judgment.&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&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;Each
Common Stock is subject to a contractual right, in the form of LEAPS&lt;/span&gt;&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;, which
gives the holder of the LEAPS&lt;/span&gt;&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt; &lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;(the &#x201c;Right Holder&#x201d;) the right
to buy the Common Stock at a predetermined price (the &#x201c;Strike Price&#x201d;) on any business day prior to the expiration of the LEAPS&lt;/span&gt;&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;.
Each LEAPS&lt;/span&gt;&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt; &lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;will be issued by The Options Clearing Corporation (&#x201c;OCC&#x201d;)
in the form of an American style option, which means that it is exercisable at the Strike Price on any business day prior to its expiration
date. The expiration date for each of the LEAPS&lt;/span&gt;&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt; &lt;span style="letter-spacing: -0.05pt"&gt;included in the Trust is
January 21, 2028.&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
Treasury Obligations included in the Trust are non-callable debt obligations that are issued by and backed by the full faith and credit
of the U.S. Government.&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;In
calculating the net asset value of a Unit, the price of a Unit is reduced by the value of the LEAPS&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt;. &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;As
of the close of business on the business day preceding the Initial Date of Deposit, the capital appreciation on the Common Stocks held
by the Trust is limited to a maximum of approximately 21.54%, because of the obligation of the Trust to the Right Holder with respect
to each of the Common Stocks entitling the Right Holder to purchase the Common Stocks at the Strike Price. The LEAPS&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt; limit
the Trust&#x2019;s upside potential in the Common Stocks to an amount equal to the Strike Price. However, as the option premium received
in return for issuing the LEAPS&lt;sup&gt;&#xae;&lt;/sup&gt; was used to purchase Treasury Obligations, the Trust will receive interest from the Treasury
Obligations until they mature and the principal from the Treasury Obligations shortly after they mature.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
