SELLING DEALER AGREEMENT
First Pacific Securities, Inc., principal underwriter of the capital stock
of the First Idaho Tax- Free Fund series of First Pacific Mutual Fund, Inc.
(hereinafter referred to as the "Fund"), cordially invites you to become a
member of the Selling Group which distributes the Fund's shares. We base our
offer of membership to you on our understanding that you are a member of the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. and also on the understanding
that you agree to act in accordance with the following terms:
1. You and we agree to abide by Rule 26 of the Rules of Fair Practice of
the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., and all other rules and
regulations that are now or may become applicable to transactions hereunder.
2. Orders for shares received from you and accepted by us will be executed
at the public offering price applicable to each order as established by the
prospectus of the Fund. The procedure relating to the handling of orders shall
be subject to instructions which we shall forward from time to time to all
members of the Selling Group. All orders are subject to acceptance by us and we
reserve the right in our sole discretion to reject any order.
3. (a) At the time of sale, checks shall be made out to the Fund and the
principal underwriter of the Fund will rebate to you a concession equal to the
amount set forth in the then current prospectus of the Fund.
(b) We agree to pay you a quarterly amount in arrears equal to .40% of
the net asset value of Fund accounts attributable to your sales efforts until
the earlier of the date on which the net assets subject to this Agreement are
redeemed out of the Fund by the shareholder or the date of termination or
material amendment of the Fund's Rule 12b-1 Distribution Plan.
4. As a member of the Selling Group, you agree to purchase shares only from
us as agent for the Fund or from your customers. Purchases from us shall be made
only for the purpose of covering purchase orders already received from your
customers (who may be any persons other than a securities dealer or broker) or
for your own bona fide investment. Purchases from your customers shall be at a
price not less than the net asset value next calculated after receipt by us of a
proper order.
5. You agree that you will not withhold placing customers' orders so as to
profit yourself as a result of such withholding.

6. You agree to sell shares only (a) to your customers at the public
offering price then applicable in accordance with the terms of the prospectus of
the Fund, or (b) to us as agent for the Fund or the Fund itself.
7. Settlements shall be made promptly, but in no case later than three
business days after our acceptance of the order. If payment is not so received
or made, the right is reserved forthwith to cancel the sale or, at our option,
to resell the shares purchased at the then prevailing net asset value, in which
latter case you will agree to be responsible for any loss resulting to us from
your failure to make payment as aforesaid.
8. If any shares sold to you under the terms of this agreement are
repurchased by the Fund or by us as agent for the Fund, you agree to pay
forthwith to us the full amount of the concession allowed to you on the original
sale. We shall notify you of such repurchase within ten days of the date of said
liquidation.
9. All sales will be subject to receipt of shares by us from the Fund. The
Fund and/or we reserve the right in our discretion without notice to you to
suspend sales or withdraw the offering of shares entirely, to change the
offering price as provided in the prospectus or to modify or cancel this
agreement, which shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
Idaho.
10. No person is authorized to make any representations concerning the Fund
or their shares except those contained in the prospectus of the Fund and any
such information as may be released by the Fund as information supplemental to
the prospectus. In purchasing shares from us you shall rely solely on the
representations contained in the prospectus and supplemental information above
mentioned.
11. Additional copies of the prospectus and of any printed information
issued as supplemental literature to said documents will be supplied by us to
members of the Selling Group in reasonable quantities upon request.
12. In no transaction shall you have authority whatsoever to act as agent
of the Fund or of us or of any other member of the Selling Group, and nothing in
this agreement shall constitute you or the Fund, the agent of the other. In all
transactions in these shares between you and us, you are acting as principal, or
as agent for an undisclosed principal, and we as agent for the Fund.
13. All communications to us shall be sent to: First Pacific Securities,
Inc. at the address set forth on page one of this Agreement. Any notice to you
shall be duly given if mailed or telegraphed to you at your address as
registered from time to time with The National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc.
