Re: m+ funds Trust, Series 6-4
Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-6
Filed January 28, 2020
File Nos.: 333-235760 and 811-23503
Dear Mr. Bartz:
On behalf of our client, m+ funds Trust (the “m+ Trust”), we submitted
to the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 28, 2020 Pre-effective Amendment No. 1 to the above-referenced registration
statement (the “Amendment”) for the Defined Preservation Fund, m+ funds Trust, Series 6-4, a series of the m+ Trust.
The Amendment incorporates responses to the comments transmitted telephonically by the Staff.
We identify in bold the Staff’s comment to which we are responding in
this letter and note in regular type our response. Page number references in our response refer to the EDGAR version of the Amendment.
PROSPECTUS
Cover Page
Add the disclosure “reduced by the trust’s
fees and expenses” to the end of the first and second sentences of the third paragraph; change “total return”
to “loss” in the last sentence of the first paragraph.
We have added this requested disclosure so that the paragraph now reads “Designed
for investors who intend to purchase units at inception and hold them until the Maturity Date and seek a percentage total
return per unit that equals [2/3rd’s], or [66.67]%, of any positive return in the SPDR® S&P
500® ETF Trust (the “Reference Asset”) relative to the Initial Reference Value (the “Partial Upside”),
or equals [1/3rd], or [33.33]%, of any negative return in the Reference Asset relative to the Initial Reference Value
(the “Partial Downside”), reduced by the trust’s fees and expenses. For example, if the Reference Asset increases
15% relative to the Initial Reference Value, the units will seek to provide a percentage total return of 10%, or if the Reference
Asset decreases 15% relative to the Initial Reference Value, the units will seek to provide a percentage loss of -5%, reduced by
the trust’s fees and expenses.”
Mayer Brown LLP operates in combination
with other Mayer Brown entities (the "Mayer Brown Practices"), which have offices in North America,
Europe and Asia and are associated with Tauil & Chequer Advogados, a Brazilian law partnership.

Investment Objective (Page 3)
Provide an estimated maturity date for the trust.
We have added the requested disclosure in the second paragraph of “Investment
Objective” and the other places in the registration statement where the maturity date is referenced. Please note that this
is an estimated maturity date and that it may change at the time of the pricing of the offering.
Principal Investment Strategy (Page 3)
Disclose that the effect of both the Partial Downside
and the Maximum Loss per Unit are reduced by the trust’s fees and expenses.
We have revised both bullet points on the bottom of page
3 to add the phrase “, reduced by the amount of the trust’s fees and expenses.”
In the explanation of “Partial Downside,”
change “return” to “loss” in two places.
We have revised the “Partial Downside” disclosure
to change “return” to “loss” in two places.
Hypothetical Performance Return Examples (Pages 4-5)
Revise the last sentence under the first graph.
We have corrected that sentence so it now reads: “In this scenario,
the return of the units would be less than the return of a direct investment in the Reference Asset.”
Update the hypothetical tables on page 5.
The hypothetical tables on page 5 have been updated to match the hypothetical
45% increase. The actual hypothetical tables in the final prospectus will not understate the Maximum Loss per Unit.
Fees and Expenses Table (Page 16)
Please provide us with a completed fee table and Example
at least 48 hours prior to submitting a request for acceleration.
The m+ Trust will submit a completed fee table and example within this timeline.
