NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, the Declaration of Trust is hereby amended by deleting the
present Section 6(d) of Article III and inserting in lieu thereof the following:
(d) VOTING. On any matter submitted to a vote of the Shareholders of the Trust, all Shares of
all Series and Classes then entitled to vote shall be voted together, except that (i) when
required by the 1940 Act to be voted by individual Series or Class, Shares shall be voted by
individual Series or Class, or (ii) when the matter affects only the interests of Shareholders
of one or more Series or Classes, only Shareholders of such one or more Series or Classes shall
be entitled to vote thereon.
RESOLVED, the Declaration of Trust is hereby amended by deleting the present Section 3 of
Article V and inserting in lieu thereof the following:
SECTION 3. QUORUM AND REQUIRED VOTE
Except when a larger quorum is required by applicable law, by the Bylaws or by this Declaration
of Trust, one-third of the Shares entitled to vote shall constitute a quorum at a Shareholders'
meeting. When any one or more Series or Classes are to vote as a single class separate from
any other Shares, one-third of the Shares of each such Series or Class entitled to vote shall
constitute a quorum at a Shareholders' meeting of that Series or Class. Any meeting of
Shareholders may be adjourned from time to time by a majority of the votes properly cast upon
the question, whether or not a quorum is present, and the meeting may be held as adjourned
within a reasonable time after the date set for the original meeting without further notice.
Subject to the provisions of Article III, Section 6(d), when a quorum is present at any
meeting, a majority of the Shares voted shall decide any questions and a plurality shall elect
a Trustee, except when a larger vote is required by any provision of this Declaration of Trust
or the Bylaws or by applicable law.
RESOLVED, the Declaration of Trust is hereby amended by deleting the present Section 4 of
Article VIII and inserting in lieu thereof the following:
SECTION 4. TERMINATION OF TRUST, SERIES OR CLASS
Unless terminated as provided herein, the Trust shall continue without limitation of time. The
Trust may be terminated at any time by vote of at least two-thirds (66 (2)/3%) of the Shares of
each Series entitled to vote, voting separately by Series, or by the Trustees by written notice
to the Shareholders. Any Series or Class may be terminated at any time by vote of at least
two-thirds (66 (2)/3%) of the Shares of that Series or Class, or by the Trustees by written
notice to the Shareholders of that Series or Class.
Upon termination of the Trust (or any Series or Class, as the case may be), after paying or
otherwise providing for all charges, taxes, expenses and liabilities belonging, severally, to
each Series (or the applicable Series or Class, as the case may be), whether due or accrued or
anticipated as may be determined by the Trustees, the Trust shall, in accordance with such
procedures as the Trustees consider appropriate, reduce the remaining assets belonging,
severally, to each Series (or the applicable Series or Class, as the case may be), to
distributable form in cash or shares or other securities, or any combination thereof, and
distribute the proceeds belonging to each Series (or the applicable Series or Class, as the
case may be), to the Shareholders of that Series or Class, as a Series or Class, ratably
according to the number of Shares of that Series or Class held by the several Shareholders on
the date of termination.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Trustees do hereto set their hands as of the date written above.
