(d) no gain or loss will be recognized by the holders of the Acquired Fund Common Shares upon the conversion of their Acquired Fund Common Shares to shares of Acquiring Fund Common Stock as part of the Merger;

(f) immediately after the Merger, the aggregate tax basis of the Acquiring Fund Common Stock received by each holder of Acquired Fund Common Shares in the Merger will be equal to the aggregate tax basis of the Acquired Fund Common Shares owned by such stockholder immediately prior to the Merger;
(g) the holding period for Acquiring Fund Common Stock received by each holder of Acquired Fund Common Shares in the Merger will be determined by including the period for which he or she held Acquired Fund Common Shares converted pursuant to the Merger, provided that such shares of Acquired Fund Common Stock were held as capital assets at the time of the Merger;
(h) the Acquiring Fund’s holding period with respect to the Acquired Fund’s assets transferred as part of the Merger, other than assets with respect to which gain or loss is required to be recognized, will include the Acquired Fund’s holding period for assets (except where investment activities of the Acquiring Fund have the effect of reducing or eliminating the holding period with respect to an asset); and
(i) the taxable year of the Acquired Fund will not end as a result of the Merger. The delivery of such opinion is conditioned upon the receipt by Xxxxxx, Xxxxx & Bockius LLP of representations it shall request of the Acquiring Fund and the Acquired Fund.
