What Happened

• The trust filed a Form 8‑K on January 26, 2026 (Item 8.01) disclosing a Trustee’s Distribution Statement related to the STRATS Certificates, Series 2005‑4 for the January 15, 2026 scheduled distribution. The distribution statement is included as Exhibit 99.1 to the filing. The filing states no other reportable transactions or matters occurred in the current reporting period.
• The underlying issuer for the securities is Wal‑Mart Stores, Inc. (Exchange Act file no. 001‑06991). The filing notes that Synthetic Fixed‑Income Securities, Inc. and the Trustee did not prepare, verify, or perform due diligence on Wal‑Mart’s own SEC reports and do not guarantee their accuracy or completeness.

Key Details

• Filing date: January 26, 2026 (Form 8‑K, Item 8.01).
• Distribution covered: Scheduled distribution date of January 15, 2026; details provided in Exhibit 99.1 (Trustee’s Distribution Statement).
• No other reportable transactions or matters occurred during the current reporting period.
• Wal‑Mart Stores, Inc. is the issuer of the underlying securities; investors should consult Wal‑Mart’s Exchange Act filings (CIK 001‑06991) on SEC EDGAR for issuer-level information.

Why It Matters

• For holders of the STRATS Certificates, Series 2005‑4, this filing provides the official Trustee statement for the January 15, 2026 scheduled distribution and where to find its details (Exhibit 99.1).
• Because the Trustee and Synthetic Fixed‑Income Securities, Inc. did not verify Wal‑Mart’s public filings, investors who need issuer financials or material issuer events should review Wal‑Mart’s own SEC filings on EDGAR. This 8‑K does not report any other material changes beyond the distribution statement.
