NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereto, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained herein, hereby agree as follows:
1. Each Insured agrees to maintain in effect, and will pay a portion of the premiums for, the Bond, which premium will be allocated pro rata according to the relative premium that such Insured would pay for separate fidelity bond coverage.
2. In the event recovery is received under the Bond as a result of a loss sustained by each Insured, each Insured shall receive an equitable and proportionate share of the recovery, which shall be an amount at least equal to the amount it would have received had it provided and maintained a single insured bond with the minimum coverage required by paragraph (d)(1) of Rule 17g-1 under the 1940 Act.
3. Each party shall, within ten days after making any claim under the Bond, provide the other party with written notice of the amount and nature of such claim. Each party shall, within ten days after the receipt thereof, provide the other party with written notice of the terms of settlement of any claim made under the Bond by such party.
4. This Agreement and the rights and duties hereunder shall not be assignable by any party hereto without written consent of the other party.

6. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
This agreement may be executed simultaneously in two counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but both of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
