TRANSFER AGENCY AGREEMENT
AGREEMENT made this 1st day of October, 1996, between THE XXXXXX
XXXXXXXXX TRUST (the "Trust"), a Delaware business trust, and BISYS FUND
SERVICES, INC. ("BISYS"), a Delaware corporation.
WHEREAS, the Trust desires that BISYS perform certain services for each
series of the Trust (individually referred to herein as a "Fund" and
collectively as the "Funds"); and
WHEREAS, BISYS is willing to perform such services on the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual premises and covenants
herein set forth, the parties agree as follows:
1. RETENTION OF BISYS; CONVERSION TO THE SERVICES.
The Trust hereby engages BISYS to act as the transfer agent for the
Funds to perform (i) the transfer agent services set forth in Schedule A
hereto (the "Initial Services"), (ii) such special services (the "Special
Services") incidental to the performance of such services as may be agreed to
by the parties from time to time (for such fees as the parties may agree as
aforesaid) and (iii) such additional services (collectively with the Initial
Services and the Special Services, the "Services"), as may be agreed to by the
parties from time to time and set forth in an amendment to said Schedule A
(for such fees as the parties may agree as aforesaid), and, in connection
therewith, the Trust agrees to convert to BISYS' data processing systems and
software (the "BISYS System") as necessary in order to receive the Services.
The Trust shall cooperate with BISYS to provide BISYS with all necessary
information and assistance required to successfully convert to the BISYS
System. BISYS shall provide the Trust with a schedule relating to such
conversion and the parties agree that the conversion may progress in stages.
The date upon which all Initial Services shall have been converted to the
BISYS System shall be referred to herein as the "Conversion Date." BISYS
hereby accepts such engagement and agrees to perform the Services commencing,
with respect to each individual Service, on the date that the conversion of
such Service to the BISYS System has been completed. BISYS shall determine in
accordance with its normal acceptance procedures when the applicable Service
has been successfully converted. The parties hereby agree that the Conversion
Date shall be no later than January 1, 1997.
BISYS may, in its discretion, appoint in writing other parties
qualified to perform transfer agency services reasonably acceptable to the
Trust (individually, a "Sub-transfer Agent") to carry out some or all of its
responsibilities under this Agreement with respect to a Fund; provided,
however, that the Sub-transfer Agent shall be the agent of BISYS and not the
agent of the Trust or such Fund, and that BISYS shall be fully responsible for
the acts of such Sub-transfer Agent and shall not be relieved of any of its
responsibilities hereunder by the appointment of such Sub-transfer Agent.
2. FEES.
Commencing on the Conversion Date, the Trust shall pay BISYS for the
services to be provided by BISYS under this Agreement in accordance with, and
in the manner set forth in, Schedule B hereto. Fees for any additional
services to be provided by BISYS pursuant to an amendment to Schedule A hereto
shall be subject to mutual agreement at the time such amendment to Schedule A
is proposed.
3. REIMBURSEMENT OF EXPENSES.
In addition to paying BISYS the fees described in Section 2 hereof,
the Trust agrees to reimburse BISYS for BISYS' out-of-pocket expenses in
providing services hereunder, including without limitation, the following:
(a) All freight and other delivery and bonding charges incurred by
BISYS in delivering materials to and from the Trust and in
delivering all materials to shareholders;
(b) All direct telephone, telephone transmission and telecopy or
other electronic transmission expenses incurred by BISYS in
communication with the Trust, the Trust's investment adviser or
custodian, dealers, shareholders or others as required for
BISYS to perform the services to be provided hereunder;
(c) Costs of postage, couriers, stock computer paper, statements,
labels, envelopes, checks, reports, letters, tax forms,
proxies, notices or other form of printed material which shall
be required by BISYS for the performance of the services to be
provided hereunder;
(d) The cost of microfilm or microfiche of records or other
materials; and
(e) Any expenses BISYS shall incur at the written direction of an
officer of the Trust thereunto duly authorized.
4. EFFECTIVE DATE.
This Agreement shall become effective as of the date first written
above (the "Effective Date").
5. TERM.
The initial term of this Agreement (the "Initial Term") shall be for
a period commencing on the date this Agreement is executed by both parties and
ending on the date that is one year after the Conversion Date. Thereafter, it
shall be renewed automatically for successive one-year terms unless written
notice not to renew is given by the non-renewing party to the other party at
least 60 days prior to the expiration of the then-current term; provided,
however, that after such termination, for so long as BISYS, 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. Fees
and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by BISYS but unpaid by the Trust upon such
termination shall be immediately due and payable upon and notwithstanding such
termination. BISYS shall be entitled to collect from the Trust, in addition
to the fees and disbursements provided by Sections 2 and 3 hereof, the amount
of all of BISYS' cash disbursements for services in connection with BISYS'
activities in effecting such termination, including without limitation, the
delivery to the Trust and/or its distributor or investment adviser and/or
other parties, of the Trust's property, records, instruments and documents, or
any copies thereof. To the extent that BISYS may retain in its possession
copies of any Trust documents or records subsequent to such termination which
copies had not been requested by or on behalf of the Trust in connection with
the termination process described above, BISYS, for a reasonable fee, will
provide the Trust with reasonable access to such copies.
In the event of a material breach of this Agreement by either party,
the non-breaching party shall notify the breaching party in writing of such
breach and, upon receipt of such notice, the breaching party shall have 45
days to remedy the breach. In the event the breach is not remedied within
such time period, the nonbreaching party may immediately terminate this
Agreement.
6. MAINTENANCE OF SYSTEMS AND EQUIPMENT; UNCONTROLLABLE EVENTS.
BISYS shall maintain adequate and reliable computer and other
equipment necessary or appropriate to carry out its obligations under this
Agreement. In the event of computer or other equipment failures beyond its
reasonable control, BISYS shall use its best efforts to minimize service
interruptions. BISYS represents and warrants that the various procedures and
systems which it has implemented with regard to safekeeping from loss or
damage attributable to fire, theft or any other cause of the records, data,
equipment, facilities and other property used in the performance of its
obligations hereunder are adequate and that it will make such changes therein
from time to time as are required for the secure performance of its
obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, BISYS assumes no
responsibility hereunder, and shall not be liable for any damage, loss of
data, delay or any other loss whatsoever caused by events beyond its
reasonable control.
7. LEGAL ADVICE.
BISYS shall notify the Trust at any time BISYS believes that it is
in need of the advice of counsel (other than counsel in the regular employ of
BISYS or any affiliated companies) with regard to BISYS' responsibilities and
duties pursuant to this Agreement; and after so notifying the Trust, BISYS, at
its discretion, shall be entitled to seek, receive and act upon advice of
legal counsel of its choosing, such advice to be at BISYS' own expense, and
BISYS shall in no event be liable to the Trust or any Fund or any shareholder
or beneficial owner of the Trust for any action reasonably taken pursuant to
such advice.
8. INSTRUCTIONS.
Whenever BISYS is requested or authorized to take action hereunder
pursuant to instructions from a shareholder, or a properly authorized agent of
a shareholder ("shareholder's agent"), concerning an account in a Fund, BISYS
shall be entitled to rely upon any certificate, letter or other instrument or
communication, believed by BISYS to be genuine and to have been properly made,
signed or authorized by an officer or other authorized agent of the Trust or
by the shareholder or shareholder's agent, as the case may be, and shall be
entitled to receive as conclusive proof of any fact or matter required to be
ascertained by it hereunder a certificate signed by an officer of the Trust or
any other person authorized by the Trust's Board of Trustees or by the
shareholder or shareholder's agent, as the case may be.
As to the services to be provided hereunder, BISYS may rely
conclusively upon the terms of the Prospectuses and Statement of Additional
Information of the Trust relating to the Funds to the extent that such
services are described therein unless BISYS receives written instructions to
the contrary in a timely manner from the Trust.
9. STANDARD OF CARE; RELIANCE ON RECORDS AND INSTRUCTIONS;
INDEMNIFICATION.
The duties of BISYS shall be confined to those expressly set forth
herein, and no implied duties are assumed by or may be asserted against BISYS
hereunder. BISYS shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of
law or for any loss arising out of any investment or for any act or omission
in carrying out its duties hereunder, except a loss resulting from willful
misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of its duties, or by
reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties hereunder, except
as may otherwise be provided under provisions of applicable law which cannot
be waived or modified hereby. (As used in this Section 9, the term "BISYS"
shall include directors and officers of, and persons who control, BISYS as
well as BISYS itself.)
So long as BISYS acts in good faith and with due diligence and
without negligence, the Trust assumes full responsibility and shall indemnify
BISYS and hold it harmless from and against any and all actions, suits and
claims, whether groundless or otherwise, and from and against any and all
losses, damages, costs, charges, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements,
payments, expenses and liabilities (including reasonable investigation
expenses) arising directly or indirectly out of administration, transfer
agency, and dividend disbursing relationships to the Trust or any other
service rendered to the Trust hereunder. BISYS agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless the Company, its Trustees and officers and nominees from and against
any and all actions, suits and claims, whether groundless or otherwise, and
from and against any and all judgements, liabilities, losses, damages, costs,
charges, reasonable counsel fees and other expenses of every nature and
character arising out of or in any way relating to the Administrator's bad
faith willful misfeasance, negligence or from reckless disregard by it of its
obligations and duties, with respect to the performance of services under this
Agreement. The indemnity and defense provisions set forth herein shall
indefinitely survive the termination of this Agreement.
Except for actions, suits or claims brought or threatened against
BISYS by (i) the Trust, or (ii) one or more Shareholders of the Trust, the
rights hereunder shall include the right to reasonable advances of defense
expenses in the event of any pending or threatened litigation with respect to
which indemnification hereunder may ultimately be merited. In order that the
indemnification provisions contained herein shall apply, however, it is
understood that if in any case the indemnifying party may be asked to
indemnify or hold the other party harmless, the indemnifying party shall be
fully and promptly advised of all pertinent facts concerning the situation in
question, and it is further understood that the indemnified party will use all
reasonable care to identify and notify the indemnifying party promptly
concerning any situation which presents or appears likely to present the
probability of such a claim for indemnification against the indemnifying
party, but failure to do so in good faith shall not affect the rights
hereunder.
The indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate at its own
expense or, if it so elects, to assume the defense of any suit brought to
enforce any claims subject to this indemnity provision. If the indemnifying
party elects to assume the defense of any such claim, the defense shall be
conducted by counsel chosen by the indemnifying party and satisfactory to the
other party, whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event
that the indemnifying party elects to assume the defense of any suit and
retain counsel, the indemnified party shall bear the fees and expenses of any
additional counsel retained by it. If the indemnifying party does not elect
to assume the defense of a suit, it will reimburse the other party for the
reasonable fees and expenses of any counsel retained by the other party.
BISYS may apply to the Trust at any time for instructions and may
consult counsel for the Trust or its own counsel and with accountants and
other experts with respect to any matter arising in connection with BISYS'
duties, and BISYS shall not be liable or accountable for any action taken or
omitted by it in good faith in accordance with such instruction or with the
opinion of such counsel, accountants or other experts.
Also, BISYS shall be protected in acting upon any document which it
reasonably believes to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the
proper person or persons. BISYS will not be held to have notice of any change
of authority of any officers, employees or agents of the Trust until receipt
of written notice thereof from the Trust.
10. RECORD RETENTION AND CONFIDENTIALITY.
BISYS shall keep and maintain on behalf of the Trust all books and
records which the Trust or BISYS 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. In case of any request
or demand for the inspection of such records by another party, BISYS shall
notify the Trust and follow the Trust's instructions as to permitting or
refusing such inspection; provided that BISYS may, upon notice to the Trust,
exhibit such records to any person in any case where it is advised by its
counsel that it may be held liable for failure to do so, unless (in cases
involving potential exposure only to civil liability) the Trust has agreed to
indemnify BISYS against such liability.
11. REPORTS.
BISYS will furnish to the Trust and to its properly-authorized
auditors, investment advisers, examiners, distributors, dealers, underwriters,
salesmen, insurance companies and others designated by the Trust in writing,
such reports at such times as are prescribed in Schedule C attached hereto, or
as subsequently agreed upon by the parties pursuant to an amendment to
Schedule C. The Trust agrees to examine each such report or copy promptly and
will promptly report or cause to be reported any errors or discrepancies
therein.
12. RIGHTS OF OWNERSHIP.
All computer programs and procedures developed to perform services
required to be provided by BISYS under this Agreement are the property of
BISYS. All records and other data except such computer programs and
procedures are the exclusive property of the Trust and all such other records
and data will be furnished to the Trust in appropriate form as soon as
practicable after termination of this Agreement for any reason.
13. RETURN OF RECORDS.
BISYS may at its option at any time, and shall promptly upon the
Trust's demand, turn over to the Trust and cease to retain BISYS' files,
records and documents created and maintained by BISYS pursuant to this
Agreement which are no longer needed by BISYS in the performance of its
services or for its legal protection. If not so turned over to the Trust,
such documents and records will be retained by BISYS for six years from the
year of creation. At the end of such six-year period, such records and
documents will be turned over to the Trust unless the Trust authorizes in
writing the destruction of such records and documents.
14. BANK ACCOUNTS.
The Trust and the Funds shall establish and maintain such bank
accounts with such bank or banks as are selected by the Trust, as are
necessary in order that BISYS may perform the services required to be
performed hereunder. To the extent that the performance of such services

redemption proceeds or other purposes, the Trust and Funds shall provide such
bank or banks with all instructions and authorizations necessary for BISYS to
effect such disbursements.

and other property used in the performance of its obligations hereunder are
adequate and that it will make such changes therein from time to time as are
required for the secure performance of its obligations hereunder.

respect to professional liability or errors and omissions coverage be canceled
or reduced. Such notification shall include the date of change and the
reasons therefor. BISYS shall notify the Trust of any material claims against
it with respect to services performed under this Agreement, whether or not
they may be covered by insurance, and shall notify the Trust from time to time
as may be appropriate of the total outstanding claims made by BISYS under its
insurance coverage.
