6. Use of Name "Xxxxxxxxxxx."
OFI hereby grants to the Fund a royalty-free, non-exclusive license to use the name "Xxxxxxxxxxx" in the
name of the Fund for the duration of this Agreement and any extensions or renewals thereof. To the extent necessary
to protect OFI's rights to the name "Xxxxxxxxxxx" under applicable law, such license shall allow OFI to inspect, and
subject to control by the Fund's Board of Directors, control the name and quality of services offered by the Fund
under such name. Such license may, upon termination of this Agreement, be terminated by OFI, in which event the
Fund shall promptly take whatever action may be necessary to change its name and discontinue any further use of the
name "Xxxxxxxxxxx" in the name of the Fund or otherwise. The name "Xxxxxxxxxxx" may be used or licensed by OFI in
connection with any of its activities, or licensed by OFI to any other party.
7. Portfolio Transactions and Brokerage.
(a) OFI is authorized, in arranging the Fund's portfolio transactions, to employ or deal with such
members of securities or commodities exchanges, brokers or dealers including "affiliated" broker dealers (as that
term is defined in the Investment Company Act) (hereinafter "broker-dealers"), as may, in its best judgment,
implement the policy of the Fund to obtain, at reasonable expense, the "best execution" (prompt and reliable
execution at the most favorable security price obtainable) of the Fund's portfolio transactions as well as to
obtain, consistent with the provisions of subparagraph "(c)" of this paragraph "7," the benefit of such investment
information or research as may be of significant assistance to the performance by OFI of its investment management
functions.
(b) OFI shall select broker-dealers to effect the Fund's portfolio transactions on the basis of its
estimate of their ability to obtain best execution of particular and related portfolio transactions. The abilities
of a broker-dealer to obtain best execution of particular portfolio transaction(s) will be judged by OFI on the
basis of all relevant factors and considerations including, insofar as feasible, the execution capabilities required
by the transaction or transactions; the ability and willingness of the broker-dealer to facilitate the Fund's
portfolio transactions by participating therein for its own account; the importance to the Fund of speed, efficiency
or confidentiality; the broker-dealer's apparent familiarity with sources from or to whom particular securities
might be purchased or sold; as well as any other matters relevant to the selection of a broker-dealer for particular
and related transactions of the Fund.
(c) OFI shall have discretion, in the interests of the Fund, to allocate brokerage on the Funds portfolio
transactions to broker-dealers (other than affiliated broker-dealers) qualified to obtain best execution of such
transactions who provide brokerage and/or research services (as such services are defined in Section 28(e)(3) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) for the Fund and/or other accounts for which OFI and its affiliates exercise
"investment discretion" (as that term is defined in Section 3(a)(35) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) and to
cause the Fund to pay such broker-dealers a commission for effecting a portfolio transaction for the Fund that is in
excess of the amount of commission another broker-dealer adequately qualified to effect such transaction would have
charged for effecting that transaction, if OFI determines, in good faith, that such commission is reasonable in
relation to the value of the brokerage and/or research services provided by such broker-dealer, viewed in terms of
either that particular transaction or the overall responsibilities of OFI and its investment advisory affiliates
with respect to the accounts as to which they exercise investment discretion. In reaching such determination, OFI
will not be required to place or attempt to place a specific dollar value on the brokerage and/or research services
provided or being provided by such broker-dealer. In demonstrating that such determinations were made in good
faith, OFI shall be prepared to show that all commissions were allocated for the purposes contemplated by this
Agreement and that the total commissions paid by the Fund over a representative period selected by the Fund's
Directors were reasonable in relation to the benefits to the Fund.
(d) OFI shall have no duty or obligation to seek advance competitive bidding for the most favorable
commission rate applicable to any particular portfolio transactions or to select any broker-dealer on the basis of
its purported or "posted" commission rate but will, to the best of its ability, endeavor to be aware of the current
level of the charges of eligible broker-dealers and to minimize the expense incurred by the Fund for effecting its
portfolio transactions to the extent consistent with the interests and policies of the Fund as established by the
determinations of the Board of Directors and the provisions of this paragraph "7."
(e) The Fund recognizes that an affiliated broker-dealer (i) may act as one of the Fund's regular brokers
so long as it is lawful for it so to act; (ii) may be a major recipient of brokerage commissions paid by the Fund;
and (iii) may effect portfolio transactions for the Fund only if the commissions, fees or other remuneration
received or to be received by it are determined in accordance with procedures contemplated by any rule, regulation
or order adopted under the Investment Company Act for determining the permissible level of such commissions.
8. Duration.
This Agreement will take effect on the date first set forth above. Unless earlier terminated pursuant to
paragraph 9 hereof, this Agreement shall continue in effect from year to year, so long as such continuance shall be
approved at least annually in the manner contemplated by Section 15 of the Investment Company Act.
9. Termination.
This Agreement may be terminated (i) by OFI at any time without penalty upon giving the Fund sixty days'
written notice (which notice may be waived by the Fund); or (ii) by the Fund at any time without penalty upon sixty
days' written notice to OFI (which notice may be waived by OFI) provided that such termination by the Fund shall be
directed or approved by the vote of a majority of all of the Directors of the Fund then in office or by the vote of
the holders of a "majority" (as defined in the Investment Company Act) of the outstanding voting securities of the
Fund.
10. Assignment or Amendment.
This Agreement may not be amended without the affirmative vote or written consent of the holders of the
"majority" of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund and shall automatically and immediately terminate in the
event of its "assignment," as defined in the Investment Company Act.
11. Disclaimer of Shareholder Liability.
OFI understands that the obligations of the Fund under this Agreement are not binding upon any Director or
shareholder of the Fund personally, but bind only the Fund and the Fund's property. OFI represents that it has
notice of the provisions of the Company's Articles of Incorporation disclaiming shareholder liability for acts or
obligations of the Fund.
12. Definitions.
The terms and provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted and defined in a manner consistent with the
provisions and definitions of the Investment Company Act.
