5. EFFECTIVE DATE.
This Agreement shall become effective with respect to a
Portfolio as of the date first written above (or, if a particular Portfolio is

(the "Effective Date").
6. TERM.
This Agreement shall continue in effect with respect to a
Portfolio, unless earlier terminated by either party hereto as provided
hereunder, until January 16, 1999 (the "Initial Term"). Thereafter, if not
earlier terminated as herein provided, it shall continue from year to year so
long as such continuance with respect to any such Portfolio is approved at least
annually by the Trustees of the Trust. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this
Agreement may be terminated by either party, without payment of any penalty,
except for the liquidated damages described below, at any time with respect to
any Portfolio upon not less than sixty (60) days' prior written notice to the
other party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after such termination for so long
as Fund Accountant, with the written consent of the Trust, in fact continues to
perform any one or more of the services contemplated by this Agreement or any
schedule or exhibit hereto, the provisions of this Agreement, including without
limitation the provisions dealing with indemnification, shall continue in full
force and effect. Compensation due Fund Accountant and unpaid by the Trust upon
such termination shall be immediately due and payable upon and notwithstanding
such termination. Fund Accountant shall be entitled to collect from the Trust,
in addition to the compensation described under Section 3 hereof, the amount of
all of Fund Accountant's cash disbursements for services in connection with Fund
Accountant's activities in effecting such termination, including without
limitation, the delivery to the Trust and/or its designees of the Trust's
property, records, instruments and documents, or any copies thereof. Subsequent
to such termination, for a reasonable fee, Fund Accountant shall deliver to the
Trust any Trust documents or records remaining in its possession.
5
6
If this Agreement is terminated without Cause during the
Initial Term hereof, or during any subsequent annual term, and if the Fund
Accountant is not continuing to be compensated as provided in the foregoing
paragraph, then the Trust shall make a one time cash payment, as liquidated
damages, to the Fund Account equal to the unpaid balance due to the Fund
Accountant for the remainder of such term, assuming for purposes of calculation
of this payment that the asset level of the Trust on the effective date of such
termination would remain consistent for the balance of this contract term.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trust may terminate this agreement at any
time for Cause, without incurring any additional cost and liquidated damages.
For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Cause" shall mean (i) dishonest
statements or acts with respect to the Trust or any affiliate thereof; (ii)
failure to perform to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trust's Board of
Trustees a substantial portion of the Fund Accountant's duties and
responsibilities hereunder; (iii) gross negligence or willful misconduct of the
Fund Accountant with respect to the Trust or any affiliate thereof; or (iv)
material breach by the Fund Accountant of any of the Fund Accountant's
obligations hereunder.
7. STANDARD OF CARE; RELIANCE ON RECORDS AND INSTRUCTIONS;
INDEMNIFICATION.
Fund Accountant shall use its best efforts to insure the
accuracy of all services performed under this Agreement, but shall not be liable
to the Trust for any action taken or omitted by Fund Accountant in the absence
of bad faith, willful misfeasance, negligence or from reckless disregard by it
of its obligations and duties. A Portfolio agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
Fund Accountant, its employees, agents, directors, officers and nominees from
and against any and all claims, demands, actions and suits, whether groundless
or otherwise, and from and against any and all judgments, liabilities, losses,
damages, costs, charges, counsel fees and other expenses of every nature and
character arising out of or in any way relating to Fund Accountant's actions
taken or nonactions with respect to the performance of services under this
Agreement with respect to such Portfolio or based, if applicable, upon
reasonable reliance on information, records, instructions or requests with
respect to such Portfolio given or made to Fund Accountant by a duly authorized
representative of the Trust; provided that this indemnification shall not apply
to actions or omissions of Fund Accountant in cases of its own bad faith,
willful misfeasance, negligence or from reckless disregard by it of its
obligations and duties. For purposes of this Agreement, actions or omissions by
any BISYS Entity or its employees, agents, directors, officers or nominees made
in any capacity shall be deemed to be actions or omissions by Fund Accountant.
Any actions or omissions by a person who is both an officer or employee of the
Trust and an officer or employee of any BISYS Entity shall be deemed to have
been committed solely in such person's capacity as an officer or employee of
such BISYS Entity.
The Trust's agreement to indemnify Fund Accountant, its partners and
employees and any such controlling person, as aforesaid, is expressly
conditioned upon the Trust being notified of any action brought against Fund
Accountant, its partners or employees, or any such controlling person, such
notification to be given in accordance with Section 19 hereof within 10 days
after the summons or other first legal process shall have been served. The
failure to so notify the Trust of any such action shall not relieve the Trust
from any liability which the Trust may have to the
6
7
person against whom such action is brought by reason of any such untrue, or
allegedly untrue, statement or omission, or alleged omission, otherwise than
with respect to incremental liabilities resulting from such failure. The Trust
will be entitled to assume the defense of any suit brought to enforce any such
claim, demand or liability, but, in such case, such defense shall be conducted
by counsel of good standing chosen by the Trust and approved by Fund Accountant,
which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event the Trust elects
to assume the defense of any such suit and retain counsel of good standing
approved by Fund Accountant, the defendant or defendants in such suit shall bear
the fees and expenses of any additional counsel retained by any of them; but in
case the Trust does not elect to assume the defense of any such suit, or in case
Fund Accountant reasonably does not approve of counsel chosen by the Trust, the
Trust will reimburse Fund Accountant, its partners and employees, or the
controlling person or persons named as defendant or defendants in such suit, for
the fees and expenses of any counsel retained by Fund Accountant or them.
8. RECORD RETENTION AND CONFIDENTIALITY.
Fund Accountant shall keep and maintain on behalf of the Trust
all books and records which the Trust and Fund Accountant is, or may be,
required to keep and maintain pursuant to any applicable statutes, rules and
regulations, including without limitation Rules 31a-1 and 31a-2 under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), relating to the
maintenance of books and records in connection with the services to be provided
hereunder. Fund Accountant further agrees that all such books and records shall
be the property of the Trust and to make such books and records available for
inspection by the Trust or by the Securities and Exchange Commission at
reasonable times and otherwise to keep confidential all books and records and
other information relative to the Trust and its shareholders; except when
requested to divulge such information by duly-constituted authorities or court
process.

authorized auditors, investment advisers, examiners, distributors, dealers,
underwriters, salesmen, insurance companies and others designated by the Trust

Accountant, or as subsequently agreed upon by the parties pursuant to an
amendment hereto.

services required to be provided by Fund Accountant under this Agreement are the

in appropriate form as soon as practicable after termination of this Agreement
for any reason.
