It is contemplated that you will enter into sales or servicing agreements with securities dealers, financial institutions and other industry professionals, such as investment advisers, accountants and estate planning firms, and in so doing you will act only on your own behalf as principal. 1.3 You shall act as distributor of Shares in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, including, without limitation, all rules and regulations made or adopted pursuant to the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, by the Securities and Exchange Commission or any securities association registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. 1.4 Whenever in their judgment such action is warranted by market, economic or political conditions, or by abnormal circumstances of any kind, the Fund's officers may decline to accept any orders for, or make any sales of, any Shares until such time as they deem it advisable to accept such orders and to make such sales and the Fund shall advise you promptly of such determination. 1.5 The Fund agrees to pay all costs and expenses in connection with the registration of Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and all expenses in connection with maintaining facilities for the issue and transfer of Shares and for supplying information, prices and other data to be furnished by the Fund hereunder, and all expenses in connection with the preparation and printing of the Fund's prospectuses and statements of additional information for regulatory purposes and for distribution to shareholders; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to require the Fund to pay any of the costs of advertising the sale of Shares. 1.6 The Fund agrees to execute any and all documents and to furnish any and all information and otherwise to take all actions which may be reasonably necessary in the discretion of the Fund's officers in connection with the qualification of Shares for sale in such states as you may designate to the Fund and the Fund may approve, and the Fund agrees to pay all expenses which may be incurred in connection with such qualification. You shall pay all expenses connected with your own qualification as a dealer under state or Federal laws and, except as otherwise specifically provided in this agreement, all other expenses incurred by you in connection with the sale of Shares as contemplated in this agreement. 1.7 The Fund shall furnish you from time to time, for use in connection with the sale of Shares, such information with respect to the Fund or any relevant Series and the Shares as you may reasonably request, all of which shall be signed by one or more of the Fund's duly authorized officers; and the Fund warrants that the statements contained in any such information, when so signed by the Fund's officers, shall be true and correct. The Fund also shall furnish you upon request with: (a) semi-annual reports and annual audited reports of the Fund's books and accounts made by independent public accountants regularly retained by the Fund, (b) quarterly earnings statements prepared by the Fund, (c) a monthly itemized list of the securities in the Fund's or, if applicable, each Series' portfolio, (d) monthly balance sheets as soon as practicable after the end of each month, and (e) from time to time such additional information regarding the Fund's financial condition as you may reasonably request. 1.8 The Fund represents to you that all registration statements and prospectuses filed by the Fund with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, with respect to the Shares have been carefully prepared in conformity with the requirements of said Acts and rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder. As used in this agreement the terms "registration statement" and "prospectus" shall mean any registration statement and prospectus, including the statement of additional information incorporated by reference therein, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and any amendments and supplements thereto which at any time shall have been filed with said Commission. The Fund represents and warrants to you that any registration statement and prospectus, when such registration statement becomes effective, will contain all statements required to be stated therein in conformity with said Acts and the rules and regulations of said Commission; that all statements of fact contained in any such registration statement and prospectus will be true and correct when such registration statement becomes effective; and that neither any registration statement nor any prospectus when such registration statement becomes effective will include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. The Fund may but shall not be obligated to propose from time to time such amendment or amendments to any registration statement and such supplement or supplements to any prospectus as, in the light of future developments, may, in the opinion of the Fund's counsel, be necessary or advisable. If the Fund shall not propose such amendment or amendments and/or supplement or supplements within fifteen days after receipt by the Fund of a written request from you to do so, you may, at your option, terminate this agreement or decline to make offers of the Fund's securities until such amendments are made. The Fund shall not file any amendment to any registration statement or supplement to any prospectus without giving you reasonable notice thereof in advance; provided, however, that nothing contained in this agreement shall in any way limit the Fund's right to file at any time such amendments to any registration statement and/or supplements to any prospectus, of whatever character, as the Fund may deem advisable, such right being in all respects absolute and unconditional.
