RISKS AND OTHER CONSIDERATIONS

As with all investments, you may lose some or all of your investment in the Trust. The Trust also might not perform as well as you expect. This can happen for reasons such as these:

• Securities prices can be volatile. The value of your investment may fall over time. Market value fluctuates in response to various factors. These can include stock market movements, purchases or sales of securities by the Trust, government policies, litigation, and changes in interest rates, inflation, the financial condition of the securities’ issuer or even perceptions of the issuer. Units of the Trust are not deposits of any bank and are not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.
• Due to the current state of the economy, the value of the securities held by the Trust may be subject to steep declines or increased volatility due to changes in performance or perception of the issuers. In the last year, economic activity has declined across all sectors of the economy, and the United States is experiencing increased unemployment. The current economic crisis has affected the global economy with European and Asian markets also suffering historic losses. Extraordinary steps have been taken by the governments of several leading economic countries to combat the economic crisis; however, the impact of these measures is not yet known and cannot be predicted.
• The Trust will invest in the units of Canadian Energy Trusts. The Trust’s investment in Canadian Energy Trust units involves risks which may differ from an investment in common stock of a corporation. Canadian Energy Trust units represent an equal fractional beneficial interest in such trust and often include provisions in their organization documents that limit their liability to unitholders. As a result, ownership of Canadian Energy Trusts may not provide unitholders with the statutory rights normally associated with ownership of shares of a corporation. In addition, Canadian Energy Trusts generally do not guarantee minimum distributions or even a return of capital and are subject to the risk that tax changes or recharacterizations will substantially affect the Canadian or U.S. tax consequences of owning such trusts. On June 22, 2007, the Canadian Senate passed into law the Tax Fairness Plan, which included a tax on distributions paid by the Canadian Energy Trusts. For those Canadian Energy Trusts that began public trading after October 31, 2006, the application of the distribution tax commenced in 2007. For Canadian Energy Trusts that began public trading before November 1, 2006 (which includes all the Canadian Energy Trusts in the Trust’s portfolio), the distribution tax will apply beginning in 2011. The distribution tax could have a material impact on the current market value of all income trusts, and consequently, could impact the value of units of the Trust. Canadian Energy Trusts are subject to the risks associated with other energyrelated companies including the possibility of wide fluctuation of energy prices. See “Investment Risks--Energy sector risk” below.
• The Sponsor does not actively manage the portfolio. The Trust will generally hold, and may continue to buy, the same securities even though a security’s outlook, market value or yield may have changed.
• Share prices or dividend rates on the securities in the Trust may decline during the life of the Trust. There is no guarantee that the issuers of the securities will declare dividends in the future and, if declared, whether they will remain at current levels or increase over time.
• Issuers of securities held by the Trust may be unwilling or unable to make principal payments and/or to declare distributions in the future, may call a security before its stated maturity, or may reduce the level of distributions declared. This may result in a reduction in the value of your units.
• The financial condition of an issuer of securities held by the Trust may worsen or its credit ratings may drop, resulting in a reduction in the value of your units. This may occur at any point in time, including during the primary offering period.
• The Trust will invest in foreign securities. The Trust’s investment in foreign securities presents additional risk. Foreign risk is the risk that foreign securities will be more volatile than U.S. securities due to such factors as adverse economic, currency, political, social or regulatory developments in a country, including government seizure of assets, excessive taxation, limitations on the use or transfer of assets, the lack of liquidity or regulatory controls with respect to certain industries or differing legal and/or accounting standards. The Trust’s investment in Canadian Energy Trusts subjects it to additional risks to which it might not otherwise be subject if it invested in similar types of income or royalty trusts that are available through issuers in the United States. In addition, the Trust’s investment in Canadian Energy Trusts may expose unitholders to additional risks that may be associated with Canada or the Canadian securities markets.
• The Trust may invest in companies that are considered to be passive foreign investment companies (“PFICs”). In general, PFICs are certain non-U.S. corporations that receive at least 75% of their annual gross income from passive sources (such as interest, dividends, certain rents and royalties or capital gains) or that hold at least 50% of their assets in investments producing such passive income. As a result of an investment in PFICs, the Trust could be subject to U.S. federal income tax and additional interest charges on gains and certain distributions with respect to those equity interests, even if all the income or gain is distributed to its unitholders in a timely manner. The Trust will not be able to pass through to its unitholders any credit or deduction for such taxes.
• The Trust includes securities whose value is dependent on currency exchange rates. The U.S. dollar value of these securities will vary with fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. Most foreign currencies have fluctuated widely in value against the U.S. dollar for various economic and political reasons such as the activity level of large international commercial banks, various central banks, speculators, hedge funds and other buyers and sellers of foreign currencies.
• The Trust includes securities issued by companies in the energy sector. Companies in the energy sector are subject to volatile fluctuations in price and supply of energy fuels, and can be impacted by international politics and conflicts, including the war in Iraq and hostilities in the Middle East, terrorist attacks, the success of exploration projects, reduced demand as a result of increases in energy efficiency and energy conservation, natural disasters, clean-up and litigation costs associated with environmental damage and extensive regulation.
• The Trust invests in securities issued by small-capitalization and mid-capitalization companies. These securities customarily involve more investment risk than securities of larger capitalization companies. Small-capitalization and mid-capitalization companies may have limited product lines, markets or financial resources and may be more vulnerable to adverse general market or economic developments.
• Inflation may lead to a decrease in the value of assets or income from investments.

Please see the Trust prospectus for more complete risk information.

Unit Investment Trusts (“UITs”) are fixed and not actively managed. An investment in this fixed portfolio should be made with an understanding of the risks involved with owning various types of investments. Industry predictions may not materialize and securities selected for the Trust may not participate in overall industry growth, if any. There is no guarantee that the portfolio will achieve its investment objective. Units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original purchase price.

This UIT is part of a long-term strategy, and investors should consider their ability to invest in successive portfolios, if available, at the applicable sales charge. There are tax consequences associated with an investment from one series to the next. Investors should consult their tax advisor to determine tax consequences associated with an investment from one portfolio to the next. Units of certain portfolios may be well suited for purchase by Individual Retirement Accounts or other qualified retirement plans. Consult an attorney or tax advisor regarding tax consequences associated with the purchase or sale of units. Claymore Securities, Inc. does not offer tax advice.
