the Product) and in connection with making such disclosure about the Product as
Licensee deems necessary or desirable under any applicable law, rules,
regulations or provisions of this Agreement, but, in each case, only to the
extent necessary to indicate the source of the S&P 100 Index. It is expressly
agreed and understood by Licensee that no rights to use the S&P 100 Index and
the S&P Marks are granted hereunder other than those specifically described and
expressly granted herein.

shall need to obtain a license from S&P with respect to the Product.

its terms.
3. License Fees.
(a) Licensee shall pay to S&P the license fees ("License Fees")
specified and provide the data called for in Exhibit B, attached hereto and made
a part hereof.
(b) During the term of this Agreement and for a period of one (1) year
after its termination, S&P shall have the right, during normal business hours
and upon reasonable notice to Licensee, to audit on a confidential basis the
relevant books and records of Licensee to determine that License Fees have been
accurately determined. The costs of such audit shall be borne by S&P unless it
determines that it has been underpaid by five percent (5%) or more; in such
case, costs of the audit shall be paid by Licensee.
4. Termination.
(a) At any time during the term of this Agreement, either party may
give the other party sixty (60) days prior written notice of termination if the
terminating party believes in good faith that material damage or harm is
occurring to the reputation or goodwill of that party by reason of its continued
performance hereunder, and such notice shall be effective on the date specified
therein of such termination, unless the other party shall correct the condition
causing such damage or harm within the notice period.
(b) In the case of breach of any of the material terms or conditions
of this Agreement by either party, the other party may terminate this Agreement
by giving sixty (60) days prior written notice of its intent to terminate, and
such notice shall be effective on the date specified therein for such
termination unless the breaching party shall correct such breach within the
notice period.
(c) S&P shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to cease
compilation and publication of the S&P 100 Index and, in such event, to
terminate this Agreement if S&P does not offer a replacement or substitute
index. In the event that S&P intends to discontinue the S&P 100 Index, S&P shall
give Licensee at least one (1) year's written notice prior to such
discontinuance, which notice shall specify whether a replacement or substitute
index will be made available.
Licensee shall have the option hereunder within sixty (60) days after
receiving such written notice from S&P to notify S&P in writing of its intent to
use the replacement or substitute index, if any, under the terms of this
Agreement. In the event that Licensee does not exercise such option or no
substitute or replacement index is made available, this Agreement shall be
terminated as of the date specified in the S&P notice and the License Fees to
the date of such termination shall be computed and refunded as provided in
Subsection 4(f).
(d) Licensee may terminate this Agreement upon ninety (90) days prior
written notice to S&P if (i) Licensee is informed of the final adoption of any
legislation or regulation or the issuance of any interpretation that in
Licensee's reasonable judgment materially impairs Licensee's ability to market
and/or promote the Product; (ii) any material litigation or regulatory
proceeding regarding the Product is threatened or commenced; or (iii) Licensee
elects to terminate the public offering or other distribution of the Product, as
may be applicable. In such event the License Fees to the date of such
termination shall be computed and refunded as provided in Subsection 4(f).
(e) S&P may terminate this Agreement upon ninety (90) days (or upon
such lesser period of time if required pursuant to a court order) prior written
notice to Licensee if (i) S&P is informed of the final adoption of any
legislation or regulation or the issuance of any interpretation that in S&P's
reasonable judgment materially impairs S&P's ability to license and provide the
S&P 100 Index and S&P Marks under this Agreement in connection with such
Product;
2
or (ii) any litigation or proceeding is threatened or commenced and S&P
reasonably believes that such litigation or proceeding would have a material and
adverse effect upon the S&P Marks and/or the S&P 100 Index or upon the ability
of S&P to perform under this Agreement. In such event the License Fees to the
date of such termination shall be computed and refunded as provided in
Subsection 4(f).
(f) In the event of termination of this Agreement as provided in
Subsections 4(a), (b), (c), (d) or (e), the License Fees to the date of such
termination shall be computed by prorating the amount of the applicable License
Fees shown in Exhibit B on the basis of the number of elapsed days in the
current term.
(g) Upon termination of this Agreement, Licensee shall cease to use
the S&P 100 Index and the S&P Marks in connection with the Product; provided
that Licensee may continue to utilize any previously printed materials which
contain the S&P Marks for a period of ninety (90) days following such
termination.
5. S&P's Obligations.
(a) It is the policy of S&P to prohibit its employees
who are directly responsible for changes in the components of the S&P 100 Index
from purchasing or beneficially owning any interest in the Product and S&P
believes that its employees comply with such policy. Licensee shall have no
responsibility for ensuring that such S&P employees comply with such S&P policy
and shall have no duty to inquire whether any investors or sellers of the
Product are such S&P employees. S&P shall have no liability to the Licensee with
respect to its employees' adherence or failure to adhere to such policy.
(b) S&P shall not and is in no way obliged to engage in any marketing
or promotional activities in connection with the Product or in making any
representation or statement to investors or prospective investors in connection
with the promotion by Licensee of the Product.
(c) S&P agrees to provide reasonable support for Licensee's
development and educational efforts with respect to the Product as follows: (i)
S&P shall provide Licensee, upon request but subject to any agreements of
confidentiality with respect thereto, copies of the results of any marketing
research conducted by or on behalf of S&P with respect to the S&P 100 Index; and
(ii) S&P shall respond in a timely fashion to any reasonable requests for
information by Licensee regarding the S&P 100 Index.
(d) S&P or its agent shall calculate and disseminate the S&P 100 Index
at least once each fifteen (15) seconds in accordance with its current
procedures, which procedures may be modified by S&P.
(e) S&P shall promptly correct or instruct its agent to correct any
mathematical errors made in S&P's computations of the S&P 100 Index which are
brought to S&P's attention by Licensee, provided that nothing in this Section 5
shall give Licensee the right to exercise any judgment or require any changes
with respect to S&P's method of composing, calculating or determining the S&P
100 Index; and, provided further, that nothing herein shall be deemed to modify
the provisions of Section 9 of this Agreement.

reputation of S&P and of the S&P Marks in connection with its use of the S&P
Marks under this Agreement.

Licensee shall submit to S&P for its review and approval a single copy of all
informational materials pertaining to and to be used in connection with the
Product, including, where applicable, all prospectuses, plans, registration
statements, application forms, publicly-accessible contracts, videos, internet
sites, electronic commerce, advertisements, brochures and promotional and any

delayed by S&P. Specifically, S&P shall notify Licensee of its approval or
disapproval of any Informational Materials within forty-eight (48) hours
(excluding Saturday, Sunday and New York Stock Exchange Holidays) following
receipt thereof from Licensee. Any disapproval shall indicate S&P's reasons
therefor. Any failure by S&P to respond within such forty-eight (48) hour period
shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of S&P's right to review such
Informational Materials.
Informational Materials shall be addressed to S&P, c/o Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx,
Specialist - Index Licensing/Marketing, Equity Index Services, at the address
specified in Subsection 12(d). Informational Materials may be submitted via
facsimile (to 000-000-0000 or 000-000-0000) if they are less than 20 pages and
legible after transmission. Once Informational Materials have been approved by
S&P, subsequent Informational Materials which do not alter the use or
description of S&P, the S&P Marks or the S&P 100 Index need not be submitted for
review and approval by S&P.

sole discretion exercise S&P's common law and statutory rights against
infringement of the S&P Marks, copyrights and other proprietary rights.
(b) Licensee shall cooperate with S&P in the maintenance of such
rights and registrations and shall, at S&P's expense, take such actions and
execute such instruments as S&P may from time to time reasonably request, and
shall use the following notice when referring to the S&P 100 Index or the S&P
Marks in any Informational Material:

not sponsored, endorsed, sold or promoted by Standard & Poor's and
Standard & Poor's makes no representation regarding the advisability
of investing in the Product.
or such similar language as may be approved in advance by S&P, it being
understood that such notice need only refer to the specific S&P Marks referred
to in the Informational Material.

coordinated, arranged and prepared by S&P through the application of methods and
standards of judgment used and developed through the expenditure of considerable
work, time and money by S&P. Licensee also acknowledges that the S&P 100 Index
and the S&P Marks are the exclusive property of S&P, that S&P has and retains
all proprietary rights therein (including, but not limited to trademarks and
copyrights) and that the S&P 100 Index and its compilation and composition and

are marked as "Confidential and Proprietary" by the providing party

information that is available to the public or to the receiving party hereunder
from sources other than the providing party (provided that such source is not
subject to a confidentiality agreement with regard to such information), (ii)
any information that is independently developed by the receiving party without
use of or reference to information from the providing party or (iii) any

party, provided, if permitted by law, that prior written notice of such required
disclosure is given to the other party and provided further that the providing
party shall cooperate with the other party to limit the extent of such
disclosure. The provisions of this Subsection 8(c) shall survive any termination
of this Agreement for a period of five (5) years from disclosure by either party
to the other of the last item of such Confidential Information.
9. Warranties; Disclaimers.

include all of the following disclaimers and limitations in each prospectus or
each Statement of Additional Information ("SAI") relating to the Product,

any member of the public regarding the advisability of investing in securities
generally or in the Product particularly or the ability of the S&P 100 Index to
track general stock market performance. S&P's only relationship to the Licensee
is the licensing of certain trademarks and trade names of S&P and of the S&P 100
Index which is determined, composed and calculated by S&P without regard to the
Licensee or the Product. S&P has no obligation to take the needs of the Licensee
or the owners of the Product into consideration in determining, composing or
calculating the S&P 100 Index. S&P is not responsible for and has not
participated in the determination of the prices and amount of the Product or the
timing of the issuance or sale of the Product or in the determination or
calculation of the equation by which the Product is to be converted into cash.
S&P has no obligation or liability in connection with the administration,
marketing or trading of the Product.
S&P DOES NOT GUARANTEE THE ACCURACY AND/OR THE COMPLETENESS OF THE S&P
100 INDEX OR ANY DATA INCLUDED THEREIN AND S&P SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR ANY
ERRORS, OMISSIONS, OR INTERRUPTIONS THEREIN. S&P MAKES NO WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED, AS

TO RESULTS TO BE OBTAINED BY LICENSEE, OWNERS OF THE PRODUCT, OR ANY OTHER
PERSON OR ENTITY FROM THE USE OF THE S&P 100 INDEX OR ANY DATA INCLUDED THEREIN.
S&P MAKES NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR USE WITH
RESPECT TO THE S&P 100 INDEX OR ANY DATA INCLUDED THEREIN. WITHOUT LIMITING ANY
OF THE FOREGOING, IN NO EVENT SHALL S&P HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY SPECIAL,
PUNITIVE, INDIRECT, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOST PROFITS), EVEN IF
NOTIFIED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
Any changes in the foregoing disclaimers and limitations must be
approved in advance in writing by an authorized officer of S&P.
(c) Each party represents and warrants to the other that it has the

it.

(f) Neither party shall have any liability for lost profits or
indirect, punitive, special, or consequential damages arising out of this
Agreement, even if notified of the possibility of such damages. Without
diminishing the disclaimers and limitations set forth in Subsection 9(b), in no
event shall the cumulative liability of S&P to Licensee exceed the average
annual License Fees actually paid to S&P hereunder.
(g) Use of any marks by Licensee in connection with its Product
(including in the name of such Product) which are not the S&P Marks is at
Licensee's sole risk.

this Agreement.
10. Indemnification.
(a) Licensee shall indemnify and hold harmless S&P, its affiliates and
their officers, directors, employees and agents against any and all judgments,
damages, costs or losses of any kind (including reasonable attorneys' and
experts' fees) as a result of any claim, action, or proceeding that is brought
against S&P that arises out of or relates to (a) Licensee's breach of this
Agreement or (b) the Product; provided, however, that S&P notifies Licensee
promptly of any such claim, action or proceeding. Licensee shall periodically
reimburse S&P for its reasonable expenses incurred under this Subsection 10(a).
S&P shall have the right, at its own expense, to participate in the defense of
any claim, action or proceeding against which it is indemnified hereunder;
provided, however, it shall have no right to control the defense, consent to
judgment, or agree to settle any such claim, action or proceeding without the
written consent of Licensee without waiving the indemnity hereunder. Licensee,
in the defense of any such claim, action or proceeding except with the written
consent of S&P, shall not consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any
settlement which either (a) does not include, the grant by the claimant to S&P
of a release of all liabilities in respect of such claims or (b) otherwise
adversely affects the rights of S&P. This provision shall survive the
termination or expiration of this Agreement.
6
(b) S&P shall indemnify and hold harmless Licensee, its affiliates and
their officers, directors, employees and agents against any and all judgments,
damages, costs or losses of any kind (including reasonable attorneys' and

against which it is indemnified hereunder; provided, however, it shall have no
right to control the defense, consent to judgment, or agree to settle any such
claim, action or proceeding without the written consent of S&P without waiving
the indemnity hereunder. S&P, in the defense of any such claim, action or
proceeding, except with the written consent of Licensee, shall not consent to
entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which either (a) does not
include, the grant by the claimant to Licensee of a release of all liabilities
in respect of such claims or (b) otherwise adversely affects the rights of
Licensee. This provision shall survive the termination or expiration of this
Agreement.
11. Suspension of Performance.
Neither S&P nor Licensee shall bear responsibility or liability for
any losses arising out of any delay in or interruptions of their respective
performance of their obligations under this Agreement due to any act of God, act
of governmental authority, act of the public enemy or due to war, the outbreak
or escalation of hostilities, riot, fire, flood, civil commotion, insurrection,
labor difficulty (including, without limitation, any strike, or other work
stoppage or slow down), severe or adverse weather conditions, communications
line failure, or other similar cause beyond the reasonable control of the party
so affected.
12. Other Matters.

EXHIBIT A
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Product: New Colony Investment Trust(the "Product") is a closed-end investment
company whose initial series of units, New Colony Protected Equity Income Fund
(the "Fund") has an investment strategy as follows:
The Fund intends to invest the net proceeds of the offering (less the cost of
the Put Contract described below) in a diversified portfolio consisting
principally of equity securities of companies selected from the S&P 100 Index.
The Fund also proposes to acquire a put option (the "Put Contract") on the S&P
100 Index entitling the Fund to sell a position in the S&P 100 Index equal to
the net proceeds of the offering, at the closing of the offering, in exchange
for an amount equal to the gross proceeds of the offering at the termination of
the Fund (expected to be ten (10) years from the closing of the offering). The
Product may add additional series of units from time to time, with an investment
strategy linked or related to the S&P 100 Index, upon the prior consent of S&P,
which shall not be unreasonably withheld.
The Product specifically excludes shares or any other security, financial
instrument or investment representing an ownership interest in the Product that
can be purchased, sold or otherwise traded on a Secondary Market Facility;
provided, however, that subject to the further proviso below, the shares of the
Fund may be listed on the American Stock Exchange, the New York Stock Exchange
or another U.S. national securities exchange; provided further, however, that
S&P has granted certain exclusive rights to one or more third parties that may
be implicated by continuous trading of shares of the Product and S&P shall
therefore have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to subsection 4(a)
hereof in the event that the trading of shares of the Product on a Secondary
Market Facility results in the compromise of such exclusive rights in S&P's
reasonable judgment, it being understood that, given the Fund's existing
investment objectives and strategies as described in its current prospectus, it
is not expected that continuous trading in the shares of the Fund will give rise
to such right to terminate.
As used herein, the term Secondary Market Facility means any entity or
organization that is: (1) subject to regulation as an exchange under applicable
laws, rules or regulations of the country or jurisdiction in which such entity
has a physical presence; or (2) a broker-dealer or other entity or organization
that acts in an exchange-like capacity by virtue of it, as principal or agent,
acting on a regular basis as an intermediary between buyers and sellers of
financial instruments of any type.
EXHIBIT B
LICENSE FEES
Licensee shall pay S&P License Fees computed as follows:
The annual License Fees shall be the greater of $10,000 (the "Minimum Annual
Fee") or two basis points (.0002) of the average daily net assets of the Product
computed quarterly. The Minimum Annual Fee shall be payable on the Commencement
Date and each one-year anniversary thereof. Amounts in excess of the Minimum
Annual Fee shall be paid to S&P within thirty (30) days after the close of each
calendar quarter in which they are incurred; each such payment shall be
accompanied by a statement setting forth the basis for its calculation.
The parties agree that the terms upon which License Fees are calculated pursuant
to this Exhibit B shall be considered "Confidential Information" for purposes of
Subsection 8(c) of this Agreement.
