Re: UNDERWRITING AGREEMENT
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Pilgrim International Fund, Inc. is a Maryland corporation operating as an
open-end management investment company (hereinafter referred to as the
"Company"). The Company is registered as such under the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), and its shares are registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"). The Company consists of one
separate series: Pilgrim International Fund, Inc. (the "Fund"). The Company on
behalf of the Fund desires to offer and sell the authorized but unissued shares
of the Fund to the public in accordance with applicable federal and state
securities laws.
You have informed us that Pilgrim Securities, Inc. is registered as a
broker-dealer under the provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is
a member in good standing of the National Association of Securities Dealers,
Inc. You have indicated your desire to act as the exclusive selling agent and
principal underwriter for the shares of the Fund. We have been authorized by the
Company to execute and deliver this Agreement to you by a resolution of our
Board of Directors (the "Directors") adopted at a meeting of the Directors, at
which a majority of Directors, including a majority of our Directors who are not
otherwise interested persons of our investment manager or its related
organizations, were present and voted in favor of the said resolution approving
this Underwriting Agreement.
1. APPOINTMENT OF UNDERWRITER. Upon the execution of this Agreement and in
consideration of the agreements on your part herein expressed and upon the terms
and conditions set forth herein, we hereby appoint you as the exclusive
distributor of the shares (other than sales made directly by the Company without
sales charge) and agree that we will deliver to you such shares as may be sold
through your efforts. You agree to use your best efforts to promote the sale of
the shares, but you are not obligated to sell any specific number of the shares.
2. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR. You will undertake and discharge your
obligations hereunder as an independent contractor and shall have no authority
or power to obligate or bind the Company or the Fund by your actions, conduct or
contracts, except that you are authorized to accept orders for the purchase or
repurchase of the shares as our agent. You may appoint sub-agents or distribute
the shares through dealers (or otherwise) as you may determine necessary or
desirable from time to time. This Agreement shall not, however, be construed as
authorizing any dealer or other person to accept orders for sale or repurchase
on our behalf or to otherwise act as our agent for any purpose.
3. OFFERING PRICE. Shares of the Fund shall be offered at a price
equivalent to its net asset value plus, as appropriate, a variable percentage of
the public offering price as a sales load, as set forth in the Fund's
Prospectus. On each business day on which the New York Stock Exchange is open
for business, we will furnish you with the net asset value of the shares, which
shall be determined and become effective as of the time described in the
Company's prospectus. The net asset value so determined shall apply to all
orders for the purchase of the shares received by dealers prior to the time as
of which net asset value is determined, and you are authorized in your capacity
as our agent to accept orders and confirm sales at such net asset value;
PROVIDED THAT, such dealers notify you of the time when they received the
particular order and that the order is placed with you prior the time as of
which net asset value is determined. To the extent that our Shareholder
Servicing and Transfer Agent (collectively, "Agent") and the Custodian(s) for
any pension, profit-sharing, employer or self-employed plan receive payments on
behalf of the investors, such Agent and Custodian(s) shall be required to record
the time of such receipt with respect to each payment, and the applicable net
asset value shall be that which is next determined and effective after the time
of receipt by them. In all events, you shall forthwith notify all of the dealers
comprising your selling group and the Agent and Custodian(s) of the effective
net asset value as received from us. Should we at any time calculate our net
asset value more frequently than once each business day, you and we will follow
procedures with respect to such additional price or prices comparable to those
set forth above in this Section 3.
4. ORDERS. You shall promptly advise us of all purchase orders for shares
of the Fund received by you. Any order may be rejected by us; provided, however,
that we and the Company will not arbitrarily or without reasonable cause refuse
to accept or confirm orders for the purchase of shares of the Fund. We or our
agent will confirm orders upon receipt, will make appropriate book entries and,
upon receipt by the Company (or its agent) of payment therefor, will deliver
deposit receipts for the shares.
5. SALES COMMISSION.
(a) In respect of each Class of Shares other than Class B Shares:
(i) You shall be entitled to receive a sales commission on the
sale of shares of the Fund in the amounts and according to the procedures set
forth in the Fund's Prospectus then in effect under the 1933 Act (including any
supplements or amendments thereto).
(ii) In addition to the payments of the sales commissions to you
provided for in paragraph 5(a)(i), you may also receive reimbursement for
expenses or a maintenance or trail fee as may be required by and described in
the distribution plans adopted by the Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940
Act (the "Distribution Plans").
(b) In respect of the Class B Shares of the Fund, the following
provisions shall apply:
2
(i) In consideration of your services as principal underwriter of
the Fund's Class B Shares pursuant to this Underwriting Agreement and our
distribution plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act in respect of such
shares (the "Class B Distribution Plan"), we agree: (I) to pay to you monthly in
arrears your "Allocable Portion" (as hereinafter defined) of a fee (the
"Distribution Fee") which shall accrue daily in an amount equal to the product
of (A) the daily equivalent of 0.75% per annum multiplied by (B) the net asset
value of the Class B Shares of the Fund outstanding on such day, and (II) to
withhold from redemption proceeds your Allocable Portion of the Contingent
Deferred Sales Charges ("CDSCs") and to pay the same over to you or at your
direction.
(ii) The Allocation Schedule attached hereto as Schedule A and
each of the provisions set forth in clauses (I) through (V) of the second
sentence of Section 1(A) of the Class B Distribution Plan as in effect on the
date hereof, together with the related definitions, are hereby incorporated
herein by reference with the same force and effect as if set forth herein in
their entirety.
(iii) In addition to the payments of amounts provided for in
Section 5(b)(i) and (ii), you may also receive reimbursement for expenses or a
maintenance or trail fee as may be required by and described in the Class B
Distribution Plan.
(c) You may allow appointed sub-agents or dealers such commissions or
discounts (not exceeding the total sales commission) as you shall deem
advisable, so long as any such commissions or discounts are set forth in the
Fund's then current Prospectus, to the extent required by the applicable federal
and state securities laws.
6. PAYMENT OF SHARES. At or prior to the time of delivery of any of our
shares you will pay or cause to be paid to the Custodian, for our account, an
amount in cash equal to the net asset value of such shares. In the event that
you pay for shares sold by you prior to your receipt of payment from purchasers,
you are authorized to reimburse yourself for the net asset value of such shares
from the offering price of such shares when received by you.
7. REDEMPTION. (a) We represent that any of the outstanding shares of the
Fund may be tendered for redemption at any time, and we represent that the
Company will repurchase or redeem the shares so tendered in accordance with the
Company's Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws and the applicable provisions of
the Fund's Prospectus. The price to be paid to redeem or repurchase the shares
shall be equal to the net asset value, less any applicable contingent deferred
sales charge, if any, determined as set forth in the applicable Prospectus (the
"redemption price").
8. REGISTRATION OF SHARES. No shares shall be registered on our books until
(i) receipt by us of your written request therefor; (ii) receipt by the
Custodian and Agent of a certificate signed by an officer of the Company stating
the amount to be received therefor; and (iii) receipt of payment of that amount
by the Custodian. We will provide for the recording of all shares purchased in
unissued form in "book accounts", unless a request in writing for certificates
3
is received by the Agent, in which case certificates for shares in such names
and amounts as is specified in such writing will be delivered by the Agent, as
soon as practicable after registration thereof on the books.
9. PURCHASES FOR YOUR OWN ACCOUNT. You shall not purchase shares for your
own account for purposes of resale to the public, but you may purchase shares
for your own investment account upon your written assurance that the purchase is
for investment purposes only and that the shares will not be resold except
through redemption by us.
10. SALE OF SHARES TO AFFILIATES. You may sell the Class A and Class C
shares at net asset value, without a sales charge as appropriate, pursuant to a
uniform offer described in the Fund's current Prospectus (i) to our Directors
and officers, our investment manager or your company or affiliated companies
thereof, (ii) to the bona fide, full time employees or sales representatives of
any of the foregoing who have acted as such for at least ninety (90) days, (iii)
to any trust, pension, profit-sharing, or other benefit plan for such persons,
or (iv) to any other person set forth in the Fund's then current Prospectus;
PROVIDED that such sales are made in accordance with the rules and regulations
under the 1940 Act and that such sales are made upon the written assurance of
the purchaser that the purchases are made for investment purposes only, not for
the purpose of resale to the public and that the shares will not be resold
except through redemption by us.
11. ALLOCATION OF EXPENSES.
(a) We will pay the following expenses in connection with the sales
and distribution of shares of the Fund:

SCHEDULE A
to the Underwriting Agreement
UNDERWRITING AGREEMENT ALLOCATION PROCEDURES
CDSCs and Distribution Fees related to Shares of each separate series of
Pilgrim International Fund, Inc. (each a "Fund") shall be allocated by such Fund
among Pilgrim Securities, Inc. ("PSI") and any replacement principal underwriter
for Shares of such Fund (the "Successor Distributor") in accordance with this
Schedule A.
Defined terms used in this Schedule A and not otherwise defined herein
shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Underwriting Agreement for Shares
of each Fund to which this Schedule A is attached. As used herein the following
terms shall have the meanings indicated.
"COMMISSION SHARE" means, in respect of any Fund, each Share of such Fund
which is issued under circumstances which would normally give rise to an
obligation of the holder of such Share to pay a CDSC upon redemption of such
Share (including, without limitation, any Share of such Fund issued in
connection with a Free Exchange) and any such Share shall continue to be a
Commission Share of such Fund prior to the redemption (including a redemption in
connection with a Free Exchange) or conversion of such Share, even though the
obligation to pay the CDSC may have expired or conditions for waivers thereof
may exist.
"DATE OF ORIGINAL ISSUANCE" means in respect of any Commission Share, the
date with reference to which the amount of the CDSC payable on redemption
thereof, if any, is computed.
"FREE EXCHANGE" means an exchange of a Commission Share of one Fund for a
Commission Share of another Fund under circumstances where the CDSC which would
have been payable in respect of a redemption of the exchanged Commission Share
on the date of such exchange is waived and the Commission Share issued in such
exchange is treated as a continuation of the investment in the Commission Share
exchanged for purposes of determining the CDSC payable if such Commission Share
issued in the exchange is thereafter redeemed.
"FREE SHARE" means, in respect of any Fund, each Share of such Fund, other
than a Commission Share, including, without limitation, any Share issued in
connection with the reinvestment of dividends or capital gains.
"INCEPTION DATE" means, in respect of any Fund, the first date on which
such Fund issued Shares.
"NET ASSET VALUE" means, (i) with respect to any Fund, as of the date any
determination thereof is made, the net asset value of such Fund computed in the
manner such value is required to be computed by such Fund in its reports to its
shareholders, and (ii) with respect to any Share of such Fund as of any date,
the quotient obtained by dividing: (A) the net asset value of such Fund (as
computed in accordance with clause (i) above) allocated to Shares of such Fund
(in accordance with the constituent documents for such Fund) as of such date, by
(B) the number of Shares of such Fund outstanding on such date.
8
"OMNIBUS SHARE" means, in respect of the Fund, a Commission Share or Free
Share sold by one of the Selling Agents listed on Exhibit I to this Schedule. If
PSI and its Transferees reasonably determine that the Transfer Agent is able to
track all Commission Shares and Free Shares sold by any of the Selling Agents
listed on Exhibit I (taking into account all information provided to the
Transfer Agent by such Selling Agent on a schedule sufficient to enable the
Transfer Agent to Complete all required reports involving such information in a
timely manner), in the same manner as Commission Shares and Free Shares are
currently tracked in respect of Selling Agents not listed on Exhibit I, then
Exhibit I shall be amended to delete such Selling Agent from Exhibit I so that
Commission Shares and Free Shares sold by such Selling Agent will no longer be
treated as Omnibus Shares.
"SHARE" means, in respect of any Fund, each Class B share of such Fund.
PART I: ATTRIBUTION OF SHARES
Shares of each Fund, which are outstanding from time to time, shall be
attributed to PSI and any Successor Distributor in accordance with the following
rules;
(1) COMMISSION SHARES OTHER THAN OMNIBUS SHARES:
(a) Commission Shares (excluding Omnibus Shares) attributed to PSI shall be
Commission Shares (excluding Omnibus Shares) the Date of Original Issuance of
which occurred on or after the Inception Date of such Fund and on or prior to
the last day on which PSI acts as principal underwriter of Shares for such Fund.
(b) Commission Shares (excluding Omnibus Shares) attributable to the
Successor Distributor shall be Commission Shares (excluding Omnibus Shares) the
Date of Original Issuance of which occurs on or after the first day on which
such Successor Distributor acts as principal underwriter of Shares for such Fund
and on or prior to the last day such Successor for Distributor acts as principal
underwriter of Shares for such Fund.
(c) A Commission Share (other than an Omnibus Share) of a particular Fund
(the "ISSUING FUND") issued in consideration of the investment of proceeds of
the redemption of a Commission Share of another Fund (the "REDEEMING FUND") in
connection with a Free Exchange, is deemed to have a Date of Original Issuance
identical to the Date of Original Issuance of the Commission Share of the
Redeeming Fund and any such Commission Share will be attributed to PSI or the
Successor Distributor based upon such Date of Original Issuance in accordance
with Part I(a) and (b) above.
(d) A Commission Share (other than an Omnibus Share) redeemed (other than
in connection with a Free Exchange) or converted to a Class A share is
attributable to PSI or Successor Distributor based upon the Date of Original
Issuance in accordance with Part I(a), (b) and (c) above.
9
(2) FREE SHARES OTHER THAN OMNIBUS SHARES:
Free Shares (excluding Omnibus Shares) of a Fund outstanding on any date
shall be attributed to PSI or a Successor Distributor, as the case may be, in
the same proportion that the Commission Shares (excluding Omnibus Shares) of
such Fund outstanding on such date are attributed to it on such date; PROVIDED
that if PSI reasonably determines that the Transfer Agent or the Selling Agent
is able to produce monthly reports which track the Date of Original Issuance for
the Commission Shares related to such Free Shares, then the Free Shares shall be
allocated pursuant to clause 1(a), (b) and (c) above.
(3) OMNIBUS SHARES:
Omnibus Shares of the Fund outstanding on any date shall be attributed to
PSI or a Successor Distributor, as the case may be, in the same proportion that
the Commission Shares which are not Omnibus Shares of the Fund outstanding on
such date are attributed to it on such date; PROVIDED that if PSI and its
transferees reasonably determine that the Transfer Agent is able to produce
monthly reports which track the Date of Original Issuance for the Omnibus
Shares, then the Omnibus Shares shall be allocated pursuant to clause 1(a), (b)
and (c) above.
PART II: ALLOCATION OF CDSCS
(1) CDSCS RELATED TO THE REDEMPTION OF COMMISSION SHARES OTHER THAN OMNIBUS
SHARES:
CDSCs in respect of the redemption of Commission Shares which are not
Omnibus Shares shall be allocated to PSI or Successor Distributor depending upon
whether the related redeemed Commission Share is attributable to PSI or
Successor Distributor, as the case may be, in accordance with Part I above.
(2) CDSCS RELATED TO THE REDEMPTION OF OMNIBUS SHARES:
CDSCs in respect of the redemption of Omnibus Shares shall be allocated to
PSI or a Successor Distributor in the same proportion that CDSCs related to the
redemption of Commission Shares are allocated to each thereof; PROVIDED, that if
PSI and its transferees reasonably determine that the Transfer Agent is able to
produce monthly reports which track the Date of Original Issuance for the
Omnibus Shares, then the CDSCs in respect of the redemption of Omnibus Shares
shall be allocated among PSI and any Successor Distributors depending on whether
the related redeemed Omnibus Share is attributable to PSI or a Successor
Distributor, as the case may be, in accordance with Part I above.
PART III: ALLOCATION OF DISTRIBUTION FEES
Assuming that the Distribution Fee remains constant over time and among
Funds so that Part IV hereof does not become operative:
10
(1) The portion of the aggregate Distribution Fees accrued in respect of
all Shares of all Funds during any calendar month allocable to PSI or a
Successor Distributor is determined by multiplying the total of such
Distribution Fees by the following fraction:
(A + C) /2
----------
(B + D) /2
where: A = The aggregate Net Asset Value of all Shares of all Funds
attributed to PSI or such Successor Distributor, as the case may
be, and outstanding at the beginning of such calendar month
B = the aggregate Net Asset Value of all Shares of all
Funds at the beginning of such calendar month
C = The aggregate Net Asset Value of all Shares of all Funds
attributed to PSI or such Successor Distributor, as the case may
be, and outstanding at the end of such calendar month
D = The aggregate Net Asset Value of all Shares of all Funds at the
end of such calendar month
(2) If PSI reasonably determines that the Fund or its transfer agent is
able to produce automated monthly reports which allocate the average Net Asset
Value of the Commission Shares (or all Shares if available) of all Funds among
PSI and each Successor Distributor in a manner consistent with the methodology
detailed in Part I and Part III(1) above, the portion of the Distribution Fees
accrued in respect of all such Shares of all Funds during a particular calendar
month will be allocated to PSI or each Successor Distributor by multiplying the
total of such Distribution Fees by the following fraction:
(A) / (B)
where: A = Average Net Asset Value of all such Shares of all Funds for
such calendar month attributed to PSI or such Successor
Distributor, as the case may be
B = Total average Net Asset Value of all such Shares of all Funds
for such calendar month
PART IV: ADJUSTMENT OF PSI'S SHARE AND SUCCESSOR DISTRIBUTORS' SHARES
If the terms of any Underwriting Agreement, any Plan, any Prospectus, the
Conduct Rules or any other applicable law change the rate at which Distribution
Fees or Service Fees are computed with reference to the Net Asset Value of
Shares of any Fund, these allocation procedures must be revised in light of such
changes in a manner which carries out the intent of these allocation procedures.
