This item may be used by a unit investment
trust that divested
itself of securities in accordance with
section 13(c). A unit
investment trust is not required to include
disclosure under this
item; however, the limitation on civil,
criminal, and administrative
actions under section 13(c) does not
apply with respect to a
divestment that is not disclosed under
this item.
If a unit investment trust divests itself of securities in accordance with section 13(c) during the period that begins on the fifth business day before the date of filing a report on Form N-CEN and ends on the date of filing, the unit investment trust may disclose the divestment in either the report or an amendment thereto that is filed not later than five business days after the date of filing the report. For purposes of determining when a divestment should be reported under this item, if a unit investment trust divests its holdings in a particular security in a related series of transactions, the unit investment trust may deem the divestment to occur at the time of the final transaction in the series. In that case, the unit investment trust should report each transaction in the series on a single report on Form N-CEN, but should separately state each date on which securities were divested and the total number of shares or, for debt securities, principal amount divested, on each such date. Item F.17 shall terminate one year after the first date on which all statutory provisions that underlie section 13(c) have terminated. |
| a. If the Registrant has divested itself of securities in accordance with section 13(c) of the Act (15 U.S.C. 80a-13(c)) since the end of the reporting period immediately prior to the current reporting period and before filing of the current report, disclose the information requested below for each such divested security: |
| i. Full name of the issuer | |
| ii. Ticker Symbol | |
| iii. CUSIP number | |
| iv. Total number of shares or, for debt securities, principal amount divested: | |
| v. Date that the securities were divested: | |
| vi. Name of the statute that added the provision of section 13(c) in accordance with which the securities were divested: |
| b. If the Registrant holds any securities of the issuer on the date of the filing, provide the information requested below: |
| i. Ticker Symbol | |
| ii. CUSIP number | |
| iii. Total number of shares or, for debt securities, principal amount held on the date of the filing: |
