DEALER'S SALES AGREEMENT
Dated____________________
Gentlemen:
We have entered into an underwriting agreement with IDEX Fund 3 (the
"Fund") whereby we will act as Principal Underwriter as defined in the
Investment Company Act of 1940, with the right to purchase shares of beneficial
interest of the Fund for sale of such shares to investors either directly or
indirectly through other broker-dealers. As Principal Underwriter we offer to
sell to you shares of the Fund subject to the following conditions:
1. In all sales of shares to the public you shall act as dealer for
your own account.
2. On purchases of shares, you shall receive a discount amounting to a
percentage of the applicable public offering price which varies with the size
and nature of each such purchase as follows:
DEALER DISCOUNT
TOTAL AMOUNT OF SIMULTANEOUS SALES ON SINGLE
PURCHASE OF HOLDINGS CHARGE TRANSACTIONS
---------------------------- ------ ---------------
Less than $10,000 8.50% 7.00%
$ 10,000 or more but less than $ 25,000 7.75 6.25
$ 25,000 or more but less than $ 50,000 6.00 5.00
$ 50,000 or more but less than $ 100,000 4.50 4.00

$ 250,000 or more but less than $ 400,000 2.50 2.25
$ 400,000 or more but less than $ 600,000 2.00 1.75
$ 600,000 or more but less than $5,000,000 1.00 0.75
$5,000,000 or more 0.25 0.20
Investors may not be permitted to purchase shares if thereafter they would
own of record shares of the Fund with a net asset value in excess of $500,000
without prior approval of the Fund.
For purposes of the above, the term "single transaction" shall also be
applied to all purchases of shares of the Fund either alone or jointly made by
you or the investor to cover orders from any one investor within any one period
of thirteen months if his purchases plus any credit under the "Right of
Accumulation" within that period aggregate $10,000 or more, provided that the
investor has on file with you and the Principal Underwriter a "Letter of
Intention" stating that he intends within thirteen months to make purchases
which, when added to any credit under the "Right of Accumulation," total at
least $10,000, and further provided that the shares so purchased are still owned
by the investor at the end of the thirteen month period.
The foregoing scale of quantity discounts shall also apply to current
purchases of shares of the Funds either alone or jointly, where the aggregate
quantity of such shares previously purchased or acquired and then owned by any
one investor, determined at current offering price, plus shares being purchased,
amounts to more than $10,000, provided you or the investor give written notice
to us each time such a purchase is made which would so qualify.
As used in Section 2 hereof, the term "any one investor" includes (i) an
individual (ii) an individual, his spouse and their children under the age of
twenty-one, purchasing securities for his or their own account, and (iii) a
trustee or other fiduciary purchasing securities for a single trust, estate, or
single fiduciary account, including pension, profit sharing and other employee
benefit trusts qualified under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code,
although more than one beneficiary is involved.
Effective May 1, 1991, we shall pay to you an Administrative Services Fee,
computed on an annual basis and paid quarterly, in the amount of ten basis
points (1/10 of 1%) of the average daily aggregate value (at net asset value) of
shares of the IDEX Fund, IDEX Fund 3 and IDEX Total Income Trust held by your
clients, provided that the average daily net asset value of such shares held by
your clients are at least equal to $500,000 throughout each quarter. Payment of
this Administrative Services Fee or the terms thereof, may be modified or
terminated at any time.
3. You represent that you are, and at the time of purchasing any shares of
the Fund will be, a member in good standing of the National Association of
Securities Dealers, Inc.
4. Orders received from you will be accepted by us only at the public
offering price applicable to each order as established by the then current
Prospectus of the Fund. The procedure relating to handling orders shall be
subject to instructions which we shall forward to you from time to time. All
orders are subject to acceptance or rejection by us in our sole discretion.
5. You agree to purchase shares only from us or from your customers. If
you purchase shares from us, you agree that all such purchases shall be made
only to cover orders already received by you from your customers, or for your
own bona fide investment.
If you purchase shares from your customers, you agree to pay such
customers not less than the redemption price in effect on the date of purchase,
as defined in the Prospectus of the Fund. We in turn agree that we will not
purchase any shares from the Fund except for the purpose of covering purchase
orders which we have already received.
6. You shall sell shares only (a) to customers at the public offering
price then in effect and (b) to the Fund or to any dealer who is a member of the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. at the redemption price in
effect on the date of sale.
7. Only unconditional orders for shares of a definite specified price
will be accepted.
8. If any shares sold to you under the terms of this agreement are
repurchased by the Fund or are tendered for redemption within seven business
days after the date of confirmation, it is agreed that you shall forfeit your
right to any discount received by you on such shares.
9. Remittance of the net amount due for shares purchased from us shall be
made payable to IDEX Investor Services, Inc., Agent for the Underwriter, within
seven days of our confirmation of sale to you. Such payment should be sent,
together with stock transfer stamps required on account of the sale by you, to
IDEX Investor Services, Inc., P. O. Xxx 0000, Xxxxxxxxxx, XX 00000-0000, with
your transfer instructions on the appropriate copy of our confirmation of sale
to you. If such payment is not received by IDEX Investor Services, Inc., we
reserve the right, without notice, forthwith to cancel the sale.
10. Promptly upon receipt of payment, shares sold to you shall be
deposited by us or our agent, IDEX Investor Services, Inc. No certificates will
be issued unless specifically requested.
11. No person is authorized to make any representations concerning shares
of the Fund except those contained in the current Prospectus for the Fund and in
supplements thereto. In purchasing shares from us you shall rely solely on the
representations contained in the Prospectus for the Fund and supplements
thereto.
12. Additional copies of the current Prospectus and supplements thereto
and other literature will be supplied by us in reasonable quantities upon
request.
13. We reserve the right in our discretion, without notice, to suspend
sales or withdraw the offering of shares entirely or to modify or cancel this
agreement.
14. We both hereby agree to abide by the Rules of Fair Practice of the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
15. All communications to us should be sent to the above address. Any
