(1) As of the Initial Date of Deposit. The ratings are by Standard & Poor’s and are unaudited. “NR” indicates no rating by Standard & Poor’s. A credit rating is an assessment provided by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (NRSRO), including Standard & Poor’s Rating Group, of the creditworthiness of an issuer with respect to debt obligations. Standard & Poor’s ratings are measured on a scale ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Sub-investment grade ratings are those rated BB+ or lower. Investment grade ratings are those rated BBB- or higher.

(2) Certain securities may be redeemed before their stated maturity. This column shows when a security is initially redeemable and the redemption price for that year. Securities are redeemable at declining prices (but not below par value) in subsequent years. S.F. indicates a sinking fund is established with respect to an issue of securities. Certain securities may also be redeemed in whole or in part other than by operation of the stated redemption provisions under certain circumstances detailed in the instruments creating them. Such redemption provisions may result in a redemption price less than the value of the securities on the Initial Date of Deposit. Estimated Current Return and Estimated Long-Term Return may also be affected by such redemptions.

(3) These securities were, or will be, issued at an original issue discount. See the prospectus for the issue dates and percentages of their original principal amount.

(4) Insurance has been obtained on this security. Such insurance coverage continues in force so long as a security is outstanding and the insurer remains in business. For securities with credit support from third party guarantees, the rating reflects the greater of the underlying rating of the issuer or the insured rating. See “Risk Factors” in the prospectus for a discussion of risks of investing in insured securities.

*Weighted average maturity represents the average amount of time remaining until the bonds held in the trust mature, taking into account each bond’s weight within the portfolio based on its market value.

**Estimated current return is calculated by dividing estimated net annual interest income per unit by the public offering price. Estimated long-term return is calculated using a formula which (1) factors in the relative weightings of the market values, yields and estimated retirements of the securities; and (2) takes into account a compounding factor, the sales charge and expenses. There is no assurance that the returns will be realized in the future because the various components used to calculate these figures will change. In addition, neither rate reflects the true return you will receive, which will be lower, because neither includes the effect of certain delays in distributions with respect to when the securities pay interest and when distributions are paid by the trust.

***The taxable equivalent estimated current return is for illustrative purposes only. This information illustrates approximately what you would have to earn on taxable investments to equal the tax-exempt estimated current return using the highest federal tax bracket and Medicare tax for 2024. This information is based on present law as of the date of publication and does not account for any proposed changes in tax rates. This information does not account for limitations on deductions, the alternative minimum tax or taxes other than Federal personal income tax.


Distributions

This unit investment trust seeks to distribute monthly income.

   
Initial Distribution per Unit: $4.18
Estimated Regular Distribution per Unit: $3.31

Distributions, if any, are paid on the twenty-fifth day of each month to unit holders of record on the tenth day of each month with the initial distribution per unit scheduled to occur on November 25, 2024 and estimated regular distributions per unit scheduled to begin on December 25, 2024. The actual distribution you receive will vary from that set forth above with changes in the portfolio’s fees and expenses and with the sale, maturity or redemption of securities.

You should consider the portfolio's investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses carefully before investing. Contact your financial professional or call First Trust Portfolios L.P. at 1.800.621.1675 to request a prospectus, which contains this and other information about the portfolio. Read it carefully before you invest.

Risk Considerations
An investment in this unmanaged unit investment trust should be made with an understanding of the risks associated with an investment in municipal bonds. Municipal bonds are subject to numerous risks including rising interest rates, economic recession, deterioration of the municipal bond market, possible downgrades, increased volatility, reduced liquidity and defaults of interest and/or principal.

Certain of the securities in the trust are covered by insurance policies obtained by the issuers or underwriters of the bond from insurance companies. There can be no assurance that any insurer will be able to satisfy its commitments in the event claims are made in the future.

This UIT is a buy and hold strategy and investors should consider their ability to hold the trust until maturity.

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. The markets for credit instruments, including municipal securities, have experienced periods of extreme illiquidity and volatility.

As the use of Internet technology has become more prevalent in the course of business, the trust has become more susceptible to potential operational risks through breaches in cybersecurity.

Ongoing armed conflicts between Russia and Ukraine in Europe and among Israel, Hamas and other militant groups in the Middle East, have caused and could continue to cause significant market disruptions and volatility within the markets in Russia, Europe, the Middle East and the United States. The hostilities and sanctions resulting from those hostilities could have a significant impact on certain investments as well as performance.

The ongoing effects of the COVID-19 global pandemic, or the potential impacts of any future public health crisis, may cause significant volatility and uncertainty in global financial markets. While vaccines have been developed, there is no guarantee that vaccines will be effective against future variants of the disease.
