REMARKS:

The amount of securities to be sold as reported above (2,250,000 Trust Units) takes into account a three-for-one split of all Trust Units, effective September 6, 2005. Trading of the Trust Units on a post-split basis on the NYSE will not commence until September 13, 2005 or shortly thereafter. Therefore, the aggregate market value of the Trust Units as reported above ($98,812,500) is calculated by multiplying the pre-split closing price of  $131.75 on the NYSE on September 9, 2005 by the pre-split amount of securities to be sold (750,000 Trust Units).

 

INSTRUCTIONS:

 

ATTENTION:

See the definition of "person" in paragraph (a) of Rule 144. Information is to be given not only as to the person for whose account the securities are to be sold but also as to all other persons included in that definition. In addition, information shall be given as to sales by all persons whose sales are required by paragraph (e) of Rule 144 to be aggregated with sales for the account of the person filing this notice.

 

The person for whose account the securities to which this notice relates are to be sold hereby represents by signing this notice that he does not know any material adverse information in regard to the current and prospective operations of the Issuer of the securities to be sold which has not been publicly disclosed.
