to provide all personal shareholder servicing and related maintenance of
shareholder account functions not performed by us or our transfer agent.

fees received by the Manager from the Fund and from other companies, and past

distribution expenses, exceed in the aggregate in any fiscal year the limits
prescribed by any state in which the Fund's shares are qualified for sale.
4. The Fund will pay for (i) telecommunications expenses,
including the cost of dedicated lines and CRT terminals, incurred by the

the terms of the Plan will be effective only upon approval as provided in
