EX-99.e.3
Olstein Capital Management, L.P.
For The Olstein Funds (“Agreement”)
Olstein Capital Management, L.P. (“OCM,” “we” or “us”), as the exclusive underwriter and national distributor of the various series and classes of shares of The Xxxxxxx Funds (“Trust”), an open-end investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), invites you (“Dealer” or “you”) to become a member of a selling group of dealers to participate in the distribution of such shares (hereafter, “Shares”) and to render related shareholder services, if applicable. The terms “Fund” and “Funds” as used in this Agreement refer to the existing or future series of the Trust and any other investment companies or series thereof for which we now or in the future serve as underwriter and distributor. Each Fund may offer multiple classes of Shares (each, a “Class,” and collectively, the “Classes”) which differ with respect to, among other things, the levels of compensation, if any, that may be paid to a Dealer in connection with the sale of such Shares. The Funds and Classes eligible for distribution under this Agreement and the terms of Dealer compensation, if any, for distribution of such Shares are described in the applicable Schedule(s) to this Agreement, which may be amended from time to time as provided herein. As principal underwriter of the Funds, we offer to sell you Shares on the following terms:
1. Sales at Public Offering Price. You may offer and sell Shares of each Fund only at the public offering prices that are currently in effect for that Class, in accordance with the Fund’s then current prospectus and statement of additional information (hereafter, the “Prospectus”) and account application for that Fund. You agree to offer and sell Shares in compliance with federal and state securities laws and in a manner that is consistent with the then current Prospectus of the appropriate Fund. All sales are subject to acceptance by us and the Fund or its transfer agent and are effective only upon confirmation. No conditional orders will be accepted. In addition, we reserve the right, at any time and without notice, to limit or suspend the sale of Shares or withdraw the offering entirely.
2. Fund Literature and Information. We will supply reasonable quantities, upon request, of Prospectuses, supplemental sales literature, sales bulletins, and additional information as issued by the Fund or us. You agree to deliver to each person to whom an offer or sale is made, at or prior to the time of the offer or sale, a copy of a current Prospectus (as amended or supplemented) and if requested, the related statement of additional information of the appropriate Fund. No person is authorized to give any information or make any representations concerning Shares of any Fund except those contained in that Fund’s then current Prospectus or in materials issued by us as information supplemental to such Prospectus. We shall file Fund sales literature and promotional material with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), as required. You may not publish or use any sales literature or promotional materials with respect to the Funds unless we provided it to you, or modify such materials or publish or use other materials relating to the Funds without our prior review and written approval, which approval can be modified or withdrawn upon written notice to you.

3. Dealer Compensation. As set forth in the applicable Schedules attached hereto, you may receive compensation for selling certain Classes of Shares of the Funds in the form of advanced commission payments, ongoing asset-based distribution and/or shareholder servicing fees or sales charges and concessions, all as stated in that Fund’s then current Prospectus. The terms of the compensation arrangements for distribution of various Classes of Shares are contained in the Schedules to this Agreement. We reserve the right from time to time, without prior notice, to modify, suspend or eliminate such compensation arrangements by amendment, sticker or supplement to the Prospectus of any Fund.
(a) Advanced Commissions: In accordance with the then current Prospectus relating to such Class of Shares of a Fund: (i) we may advance commission payments to you from our own resources in connection with sales of those Classes of Shares for which no front-end sales charge is imposed; and (ii) if any Shares purchased in such a transaction are repurchased or redeemed during the first year after they are purchased, we shall be entitled to recover from your customers any deferred sales charge or redemption fees attributable to such Shares.
(b) Asset-Based Compensation (12b-1 Fees): With respect to any Fund that offers Classes of Shares for which distribution plans have been adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act (individually, a “12b-1 Plan”), you shall provide distribution and marketing services in the promotion of that Fund’s Shares. In connection with the receipt of shareholder servicing fees as set forth under the 12b-1 Plan(s) applicable to the Class or Classes of Fund Shares purchased by your customers, you also shall provide administrative and other services to your customers who own such Fund’s Shares, including, but not limited to, furnishing personal and other services and assistance answering routine inquiries regarding Funds, assisting in changing dividend options, account designations and addresses, and maintaining such accounts or such other services as the Fund may require, to the extent permitted by applicable statutes, rules or regulations. For such services we will pay you a fee as established by us from time to time based on a portion of the net asset value of the accounts of your customers in that Fund. We are permitted to make such payments under the terms of the 12b-1 Plan(s) adopted for certain Classes of Shares of the Funds, as such 12b-1 Plan(s) may be in effect from time to time. The 12b-1 Plan(s) in effect on the date of this Agreement are described in each applicable Fund’s Prospectus. Each Fund reserves the right to terminate or suspend its 12b-1 Plan(s) at any time as specified in that Plan, and we reserve the right at any time, without notice, to modify, suspend or terminate payments hereunder in connection with such 12b-1 Plan(s). You agree to furnish promptly to the Fund and to us such information as may be reasonably requested by the Fund, its Board of Trustees, or us with respect to such fees paid to you pursuant to this Agreement. In the event we do not receive payment from the Funds under the relevant distribution agreement or 12b-1 Plan, or if such distribution agreement or 12b-1 Plan is canceled, you agree to waive your right to receive compensation until such time, if ever, as we receive payment. To the extent you provide or arrange to provide such services as contemplated in this Section 3(b), you represent and warrant that you will comply with the terms and conditions set forth in the 12b-1 Plan and the then current Prospectus of the appropriate Fund for receiving such payments.
(c) Front-End Sales Charges: You may deduct from the purchase price the applicable concession as set forth in the then current Prospectus relating to a Class of Shares of a Fund having a front-end sales charge. No Dealer concessions will be payable in respect of Shares
2
purchased through reinvestment of dividends or distributions, or with respect to Shares purchased through an exchange of other Shares. If any Shares sold subject to a front-end sales charge are tendered for redemption or repurchase within thirty business days after the date of the confirmation of the original purchase order, you shall promptly refund to us the concession allowed to you on such Shares. Sales charges and Dealer concessions may be subject to reductions under a variety of circumstances as described in that Fund’s Prospectus. You must notify us at the time of the sale if the sale qualifies for reduced charges. If you fail to notify us at the time of the sale, neither we nor any Fund will be liable for amounts necessary to reimburse any investor for the reduction that should have been effected.
4. Transaction Processing and Payment. If required by law, each transaction shall be confirmed in writing on a fully disclosed basis and if confirmed by us, a copy of each confirmation shall be sent simultaneously to you if you so request in writing. Orders for Shares will be effected at the price next computed on the day they are received if, as set forth in the applicable Fund’s then current Prospectus, the orders are received by us, an agent appointed by us, or the Fund prior to the time the price of the Fund’s Shares is calculated. Orders received after that time will be effected at the price computed on the next business day. All purchase orders must be accompanied by payment in U.S. dollars. Orders payable by check must be drawn payable in U.S. dollars on a U.S. bank, for the full amount of the investment. If payment is not received within the time customary or the time required by law for such payment, the sale may be canceled without notice or demand and without any responsibility or liability on our part or on the part of the Funds, or at our option, we may sell the Shares which you ordered back to that Fund, in which latter case we may hold you responsible for any loss to the Funds or loss of profit suffered by us resulting from your failure to make such payment. We shall have no liability for any check or other item returned unpaid to you after you have paid us on behalf of a purchaser.
5. Redemptions, Repurchases and Exchanges. Redemptions, repurchases or exchanges of Shares of a Fund will be made at the net asset value of such Shares, less any applicable deferred sales, redemption or exchange charges, in accordance with that Fund’s Prospectus. Except as permitted by law, you agree not to purchase any Shares from your customers at a price lower than the net asset value of such Shares next computed by that Fund after the purchase (the “Redemption/Repurchase Price”). You shall, however, be permitted to sell Shares of a Fund for the account of the record owner to that Fund at the Redemption/Repurchase Price for such Shares. All redemption, repurchase or exchange requests are subject to the timely receipt of required instructions or documents (including certificates), and if such information is not received within the time customary or required by law, the redemption may be canceled and you will be responsible for any loss to us or the Funds.
6. Other Duties of Dealer. By accepting this Agreement, you agree as follows:
(a) To act as principal, or as agent on behalf of your customers, in all transactions in Shares of the Funds. You shall not have any authority to act as agent for any Fund, for us or for any other dealer in the selling group, nor will you represent to any third party that you have such authority or are acting in such capacity.
(b) To purchase Shares only from us or from your customers.
3
(c) To enter orders for the purchase of Shares of a Fund only through us or that Fund’s transfer agent and only for the purpose of covering purchase orders you have already received from your customers or for your own bona fide investment.
(d) To maintain all records required by federal and state laws and regulations relating to the offer and sale of Shares, and you agree to furnish us or our representatives with copies of such records upon request.
(e) That you will not withhold placing customers’ orders for Shares so as to profit as a result of such withholding or, for those Classes of Shares for which sales charges apply, you will not place orders for Shares in amounts just below the point at which sales charges are reduced so as to benefit from a higher sales charge applicable to an amount below the breakpoint.
(f) That you shall assume responsibility for any loss to a Fund caused by a correction made subsequent to trade date, provided that such correction was not based on any error, omission or negligence on our part, and that you will immediately pay such loss to that Fund upon notification.
(g) To obtain from your customers all consents required by privacy laws to permit us, any of our affiliates or the Funds to provide you either directly or through a service established for that purpose with confirmations, account statements and other information about your customers’ investments in the Funds.
(h) To use your best efforts to cooperate with us to protect against abusive market timing activities within the Funds by your customers and, in this regard, to cooperate with us in seeking to identify improper trading patterns, identify your customer accounts in which such trades are occurring, and to cease offering Shares to such customers or through sales representatives that are responsible for such trading patterns. You also agree to monitor trading patterns within your customer accounts to the extent necessary to enforce any redemption fee or contingent deferred sales charge established by a Fund.
(i) You acknowledge and understand that purchases and redemptions of a Fund’s Shares are governed by Rule 22c-1 under the 1940 Act, which requires purchases and redemptions of a Fund’s Shares to be processed at a price based on the current net asset value next computed after receipt of the purchase or redemption order. You also acknowledge and understand that the time you receive purchase and redemption orders is controlling for purposes of determining the price to be received by the customer under Rule 22c-1, and that you are responsible for establishing, maintaining and implementing procedures and controls to assure that customer orders are transmitted in a manner that assures that the customer receives the proper transaction price. You also acknowledge and agree that you are required to process orders in a manner and within timeframes required under the law.
(j) You agree, to the extent you maintain one or more omnibus accounts with the Fund’s transfer agent, that you will apply and implement any required redemption fee to
4
shareholder accounts on your recordkeeping system. You will immediately inform the Fund or us if you are unable to comply with any part of this redemption fee requirement. You further agree that, upon reasonable request by the Fund or us, to share information concerning your customers that may include, but is not necessarily limited to: (i) Taxpayer Identification Numbers of all customers that purchased, redeemed, transferred, or exchanged Shares of the Fund held through an account with you; (ii) the amount and dates of such customer purchases, redemptions, transfers and exchanges; and (iii) any other information we, the Fund or its agent reasonably request concerning identification or transactions of such customers. In addition, you agree, upon request by us, the Fund or its agent, to execute instructions from us or the Fund to restrict or prohibit further purchases or exchanges of Fund Shares by a customer who has been identified by us or the Fund as having engaged in transactions of Fund Shares (directly or indirectly through your account) that may violate policies established by the Fund for the purpose of eliminating or reducing any dilution of the value of the outstanding Shares issued by the Fund.
(k) You agree to maintain insurance coverage at all times that is reasonable and customary in light of your duties under this Agreement.
(l) You agree that you will at all times maintain a computer system with security features that are commercially reasonable and that you will prevent any person from using your computer system to illegally access or otherwise harm, injure or interfere with a computer system maintained by or on behalf of us or the Funds.
7. Legal Compliance. This Agreement and any transaction with, or payment to, you pursuant to the terms hereof is conditioned on your representations and warranties to us that, as of the date of this Agreement you are, and at all times during its effectiveness you will be: (a) either (i) a registered broker-dealer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and qualified under state securities laws in each jurisdiction in which you are required to be qualified to act as a broker-dealer in securities, and a member in good standing of FINRA, or (ii) a foreign broker-dealer not eligible for membership in FINRA and otherwise in compliance with U.S. federal and state securities laws; and (b) a member in good standing of the Securities Investor Protection Corporation. You also agree to notify us immediately in writing and immediately suspend sales of Fund Shares if these representations and warranties cease to be true. You also agree that whether you are a member of FINRA or a foreign broker-dealer not eligible for such membership, you will comply with the FINRA Transitional Rulebook (or any successor rules).

5
and obligations in this Agreement; and (z) you shall throughout the term of this Agreement comply with the requirements of applicable laws including Title III of the Patriot Act, rules and regulations, including, but not limited to, federal and state securities laws, the rules, regulations and orders of the SEC and FINRA, in performing and observing all of your duties, obligations and covenants set forth or contemplated by this Agreement.

You agree not to offer or sell Shares in any state or jurisdiction in which we have informed you that such Shares may not be sold.

However, this subsection (a) shall not apply to any claims, demands, liabilities, or expenses that arise out of or are based upon any such untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished by or on behalf of you to us, the Funds, or the Funds’ counsel; and further provided, that in no event shall anything contained herein be so construed as to protect you against any liability to us, any Fund or the shareholders of any Fund to which you would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, or negligence in the performance of your duties, or by reason of your reckless disregard of your obligations under this Agreement or otherwise.
(b) You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold us and our officers, directors or partners, the Funds, the Funds’ officers and trustees, and any person who controls us or any of the Funds within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act, free and harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities and expenses (including the cost of investigating or defending against such claims, demands or liabilities and any reasonable counsel fees incurred in

7

(b) Safeguarding Customer Information. The parties shall establish and maintain safeguards against the unauthorized access, destruction, loss, or alteration of Customer Information in their control, which are no less rigorous than those maintained by a party for its own information of a similar nature.
