1   On November 22, 2000, shares of Seagate Technology, Inc. were acquired by Veritas Software. At the time of the merger, Veritas Software replaced Seagate Technology, Inc. as a constituent of the Internet Architecture HOLDRS Trust. Neither Seagate Technology, Inc. nor Veritas Software is currently a constituent of Internet Architecture HOLDRS. At the time of the merger, it was anticipated that future entitlements may be due to the former holders of Seagate Technology, Inc. On September 21, 2009, a final distribution to former shareholders of Seagate Technology, Inc. became effective. In connection with the distribution,  Seagate Technology, Inc. shareholders will receive $0.1020456 in cash for each share of Seagate Technology, Inc. The Bank of New York Mellon will receive $0.2040912 for the former two shares of Seagate Technology, Inc. per 100 round-lot of Internet Architecture HOLDRS.
 
2 On October 26, 2009, the 1-for-10 reverse stock split of Unisys Corporation, an underlying constituent of the Internet Architecture HOLDRS Trust, became effective.  As a result, the quantity of shares of Unisys Corporation represented by each 100 share round-lot of Internet Architecture HOLDRS Trust will decrease from 2 shares to 0.2 shares.  Once the allocation has been completed by The Depository Trust Company, deposits of shares of Unisys Corporation for creations of Internet Architecture HOLDRS will decrease from 2 shares to 0.2 share per round-lot of 100 Internet Architecture HOLDRS due to the 1-for-10 reverse stock split of Unisys Corporation.
 

 

The share amounts listed in the table above reflect all previous stock splits, dividends and business combination transactions.
