DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT
AGREEMENT made as of this ______ day of ____________, l996 between NUVEEN
FLAGSHIP MULTISTATE TRUST IV, a business trust organized under the laws of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts (the "Fund"), and XXXX NUVEEN & CO. INCORPORATED,
a Delaware corporation (the "Underwriter").
W I T N E S S E T H
In consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, it is
hereby agreed by and between the parties hereto as follows:
1. The Fund hereby appoints the Underwriter its agent for the
distribution of shares of beneficial interest, par value $.0l per share,
including such series or classes of shares as may now or hereafter be
authorized (the "Shares"), in jurisdictions wherein Shares may legally be
offered for sale; provided, however, that the Fund, in its absolute discretion,
may: (a) issue or sell Shares directly to holders of Shares of the Fund upon
such terms and conditions and for such consideration, if any, as it may
determine, whether in connection with the distribution of subscription or
purchase rights, the payment or reinvestment of dividends or distributions, or
otherwise; and (b) issue or sell Shares at net asset value in connection with
merger or consolidation with, or acquisition of the assets of, other investment
companies or similar companies.
2. The Underwriter hereby accepts appointment as agent for the distribution of
the Shares and agrees that it will use its best efforts to sell such part of
the authorized Shares remaining unissued as from time to time shall be
effectively registered under the Securities Act of l933 ("Securities Act"), at
prices determined as hereinafter provided and on terms hereinafter set forth,
all subject to applicable Federal and State laws and regulations and to the
Declaration of Trust of the Fund.
3. The Fund agrees that it will use its best efforts to keep effectively
registered under the Securities Act for sale, as herein contemplated, such
Shares as the Underwriter shall reasonably request and as the Securities and
Exchange Commission shall permit to be so registered.
4. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Fund may terminate,
suspend, or withdraw the offering of the Shares, or Shares of any series or
class, whenever, in its sole discretion, it deems such action to be desirable.
5. The Underwriter shall sell Shares to, or through, brokers, dealers, banks
or other qualified financial intermediaries (hereinafter referred to as
"dealers"), or others, in such manner not inconsistent with the provisions
hereof and the then effective Registration Statement of the Fund under the
Securities Act (and related Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information)
as the Underwriter may determine from time to time, provided that no dealer, or
other person, shall be appointed nor authorized to act as agent of the Fund
without the prior consent of the Fund. The Underwriter shall have the right to
enter into agreements with brokers, dealers and banks (referred to herein as
"dealers") of its choice for the sale of Shares and fix therein the portion of
2
the sales charge which may be allocated to such dealers; provided that the Fund
shall approve the form of such agreements and shall evidence such approval by
filing said form and any amendments thereto as attachments to this Agreement,
which shall be filed as an exhibit to the Fund's currently effective
registration statement under the Securities Act. Shares sold to dealers shall
be for resale by such dealers only at the public offering price(s) set forth in
the Fund's then current Prospectus. The current forms of such agreements are
attached hereto as Exhibits 1, 2 and 3.
6. Shares offered for sale, or sold by the Underwriter, shall be so offered or
sold at a price per Share determined in accordance with the then current
Prospectus relating to the sale of Shares except as departure from such prices
shall be permitted by the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Any public offering price shall be the net asset value per Share
plus a sales charge of not more than 4.75% of such public offering price.
Shares may be sold at net asset value without a sales charge to such class or
classes of investors or in such class or classes of transactions as may be
permitted under applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and
as described in the then current Prospectus of the Fund. The net asset value
per Share of each series or class shall be calculated in accordance with the
Declaration of Trust of the Fund and shall be determined in the manner, and at
the time, set forth in the then current Prospectus of the Fund relating to such
Shares.
7. The price the Fund shall receive for all Shares purchased from the Fund
shall be the net asset value used in determining the public offering price
applicable to the sale of such Shares. The excess, if any, of the sales price
over the net asset value of Shares sold by the Underwriter as agent shall be
retained by the Underwriter as a commission for its services hereunder. Out of
such commission, the Underwriter may allow commissions or concessions to
dealers in such amounts as the Underwriter shall determine from time to time.
Except as may be otherwise determined by the Underwriter and the Fund from time
to time, such commissions or concessions shall be uniform to all dealers.
8. The Underwriter shall issue and deliver, or cause to be issued and
delivered, on behalf of the Fund such confirmations of sales made by it as
agent, pursuant to this Agreement, as may be required. At, or prior to, the
time of issuance of Shares, the Underwriter will pay, or cause to be paid, to
the Fund the amount due the Fund for the sale of such Shares. Certificates
shall be issued, or Shares registered on the transfer books of the Fund, in
such names and denominations as the Underwriter may specify.
9. The Fund will execute any and all documents, and furnish any and all
information, which may be reasonably necessary in connection with the
qualification of the Shares for sale (including the qualification of the Fund
as a dealer, where necessary or advisable) in such states as the Underwriter
may reasonably request (it being understood that the Fund shall not be
required, without its consent, to comply with any requirement which, in its
opinion, is unduly burdensome).
l0. The Fund will furnish to the Underwriter, from time to time, such
information with respect to the Fund and the Shares as the Underwriter may
reasonably request for use in connection with
3
the sale of Shares. The Underwriter agrees that it will not use or distribute,
nor will it authorize dealers or others to use, distribute or disseminate, in
connection with the sale of such Shares, any statements other than those
contained in the Fund's current Prospectus and Statement of Additional
Information, except such supplemental literature or advertising as shall be
lawful under Federal and State securities laws and regulations, and that it
will furnish the Fund with copies of all such material.
ll. The Underwriter shall order Shares from the Fund only to the extent that it
shall have received purchase orders therefor. The Underwriter will not make,
nor authorize any dealers or others, to make: (a) any short sale of Shares; or
(b) any sale of Shares to any officer or trustee of the Fund, nor to any
officer or trustee of the Underwriter, or of any corporation or association
furnishing investment advisory, managerial, or supervisory services to the
Fund, nor to any such corporation or association, unless such sales are made in
accordance with the then current Prospectus relating to the sale of such
Shares.
l2. In selling Shares for the account of the Fund, the Underwriter will in all
respects conform to the requirements of all Federal and State laws and the
Rules of Fair Practice of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
relating to such sales, and will indemnify and save harmless the Fund from any
damage or expense on account of any wrongful act by the Underwriter or any
employee, representative, or agent of the Underwriter. The Underwriter will
observe and be bound by all the provisions of the Declaration of Trust of the
Fund (and of any fundamental policies adopted by the Fund pursuant to the
Investment Company Act of l940, notice of which shall have been given by the
Fund to the Underwriter) which at the time in any way require, limit, restrict,
prohibit or otherwise regulate any action on the part of the Underwriter.
l3. The Underwriter will require each dealer to conform to the provisions
hereof and of the Registration Statement (and related Prospectus) at the time
in effect under the Securities Act with respect to the public offering price of
the Shares, and neither the Underwriter nor any such dealer shall withhold the
placing of purchase orders so as to make a profit thereby.
l4. The Fund will pay, or cause to be paid, expenses (including the fees and
disbursements of its own counsel) of any registration of Shares under the
Securities Act, expenses of qualifying or continuing the qualification of the
Shares for sale and, in connection therewith, of qualifying or continuing the
qualification of the Fund as a dealer or broker under the laws of such states
as may be designated by the Underwriter under the conditions herein specified,
and expenses incident to the issuance of the Shares such as the cost of Share
certificates, issue taxes, and fees of the transfer and shareholder service
agent. The Underwriter will pay, or cause to be paid, all expenses (other than
expenses which any dealer may bear pursuant to any agreement with the
Underwriter) incident to the sale and distribution of the Shares issued or sold
hereunder, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all:
(a) expenses of printing and distributing any Prospectus and Statement of
Additional Information and of preparing, printing and distributing or
disseminating any other literature, advertising and selling aids in connection
with such offering of the Shares for sale (except that such expenses need not
include expenses incurred by the Fund in connection with the preparation,
printing and distribution of any report
4
or other communication to holders of Shares in their capacity as such), and (b)
expenses of advertising in connection with such offering. No transfer taxes,
if any, which may be payable in connection with the issue or delivery of Shares
sold as herein contemplated, or of the certificates for such Shares, shall be
borne by the Fund, and the Underwriter will indemnify and hold harmless the
Fund against liability for all such transfer taxes.
l5. This agreement shall continue in effect until _______________________,
unless and until terminated by either party as hereinafter provided, and will
continue from year to year thereafter, but only so long as such continuance is
specifically approved, at least annually, in the manner required by the
Investment Company Act of l940. Either party hereto may terminate this
agreement on any date by giving the other party at least six months' prior
written notice of such termination, specifying the date fixed therefor.
Without prejudice to any other remedies of the Fund in any such event, the Fund
may terminate this agreement at any time immediately upon any failure of
fulfillment of any of the obligations of the Underwriter hereunder.
Without prejudice to any other remedies of the Fund in any such event, the Fund
may terminate this Agreement at any time immediately upon any failure of
fulfillment of any of the obligations of the Underwriter hereunder.
l6. This agreement shall automatically terminate in the event of its
assignment.
l7. Any notice under this agreement shall be in writing, addressed, and
delivered or mailed, postage pre-paid, to the other party at such address as
such other party may designate for the receipt of such notice.
18. The Declaration of Trust of the Fund on file with the Secretary of State of
the Commonwealth of Massachusetts was executed on behalf of the Fund by the
initial trustees of the Fund and not individually, and any obligation of the
Fund shall be binding only upon the assets of the Fund (or applicable series
thereof) and shall not be binding upon any trustee, officer or shareholder of
the Fund. Neither the authorization of any action by the trustees or
shareholders of the Fund nor the execution of this agreement on behalf of the
Fund shall impose any liability upon any Trustee, officer or shareholder of the
Fund.
5
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Fund and the Underwriter have each caused this
agreement to be executed on its behalf as of the day and year first above
written.

distribution of shares of common stock of the Funds (the "Shares"). As
exclusive agent of the Funds, we offer to sell you Shares on the following
terms:
1. In all sales of Shares to the public you shall act as dealer for your
own account, and in no transaction shall you have any authority to act as
agent for any Fund, for us or for any other member of the Selling Group.
2. Orders received from you shall be accepted by us only at the public
offering price applicable to each order, as established by the then

followed by a confirmation in writing. Additional instructions may be
forwarded to you from time to time. All orders are subject to acceptance
or rejection by us in our sole discretion.
3. You may offer and sell Shares to your customers only at the public
offering price determined in the manner described in the current

price as provided in the Prospectus. You may receive a distribution fee
and/or a service fee with respect to certain class(es) of Shares for which
such fees are applicable, as provided in the applicable Prospectus, which
distribution fee and/or service fee shall be payable for such periods and
at such intervals as are from time to time specified by us. Your placement
of an order for Shares after the date of any notice of such amendment
shall conclusively evidence your agreement to be bound thereby.
Reduced sales charges may also be available as a result of a cumulative
discount or pursuant to a letter of intent. Further information as to
such reduced sales charges, if any, is set forth in the appropriate Fund
Prospectus. You agree to advise us promptly as to the amounts of any sales
made by you to the public qualifying for reduced sales charges.
4. By accepting this Agreement, you agree:
(a) That you will purchase Shares only from us;
(b) That you will purchase Shares from us only to cover purchase
orders already received from your customers, or for your own
bona fide investment; and
(c) That you will not withhold placing with us orders received from

withholding.
(d) That, with respect to the sale of Shares of Funds that offer
multiple classes of Shares, you will comply with the terms of

Classes of Shares, attached hereto as Exhibit A.

we reserve the right, without notice, forthwith to cancel the sale or, at
our option, to cause the Fund to redeem the Shares ordered, in which case
we may hold you responsible for any loss, including loss of profit,
suffered by us as result of your failure to make such payment. If any
Shares confirmed to you under the terms of this agreement are repurchased
by the issuing Fund or by us as agent for the Fund, or are tendered for
repurchase, within seven business days after the date of our confirmation
of the original purchase order, you shall promptly refund to us the full
discount, commission, or other concession, if any, allowed or paid to you
on such Shares.
7. Shares sold hereunder shall be available in book-entry form on the
books of Shareholder Services, Inc. unless other instructions have been
given.

supplemented) and will not furnish to any persons any information relating

consent and the consent of the appropriate Fund. You shall be responsible
for any required filing of such advertising.
7

discount or to modify, cancel or change the terms of this agreement.
10. Your acceptance of this agreement constitutes a representation that you
are a registered securities dealer and a member in good standing of the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. and agree to comply with
all applicable state and Federal laws, rules and regulations applicable to
transactions hereunder and to the Rules of Fair Practice of the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., including specifically Section

Exhibit A to Nuveen Mutual Funds
DEALER DISTRIBUTION AND
SHAREHOLDER SERVICING AGREEMENT
Policies and Procedures With Respect to
Sales of Multiple Classes of Funds
The Nuveen non-money market open-end mutual funds (the "Funds") have one or
more of the following classes of shares generally available to the public:
Class A Shares, which are normally subject to an up-front sales charge and a
service fee; Class B Shares, which are subject to an asset-based sales charge,
a service fee, and a declining contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC"); and
Class C Shares, which are subject to an asset-based sales charge, a service
fee, and a 12-month CDSC, it is important for an investor to choose the method
of purchasing shares which best suits his or her particular circumstances. To
assist investors in these decisions, Xxxx Nuveen & Co. Incorporated,
underwriter for the Nuveen Mutual Funds, has instituted the following policies
with respect to orders for Fund shares. These policies apply to each
Authorized Dealer which distributes Fund shares.
1. Purchase orders for a single purchaser equal to or exceeding
$1,000,000 should be placed only for Class A shares, unless such
purchase for Class B or Class C Shares has been reviewed and
approved by the Authorized Dealer's appropriate supervisor.
2. Any purchase order for less than $1,000,000 may be for Class A,
Class B or Class C Shares in light of the relevant facts and
circumstances, including:
a) the specific purchase order dollar amount;
b) the length of time the investor expects to hold his or her
Shares;
c) whether the investor expects to reinvest dividends; and
d) any other relevant circumstances such as the availability of
purchases under a letter of intent, a combined discount or a
cumulative discount, as described in the Prospectus for the
Fund, and any anticipated changes in the funds net asset value
per share.
There are instances when one method of purchasing Shares may be more
appropriate than the other. For example, investors who would qualify for a
significant discount from the maximum sales load on Class A Shares might
determine that payment of such a reduced up-front sales charge is preferable to
the payment of a higher ongoing distribution fee on Class B or Class C Shares.
On the other hand, investors who prefer not to pay an up-front sales charge may
wish to defer the sales charge by purchasing Class B or Class C Shares. Those
who plan to redeem their shares within 5 years might consider Class C Shares,
particularly if they do not expect to reinvest dividends in additional shares.
Note that, if an investor anticipates redeeming Class B Shares within a short
period of time such as one year, that investor may bear higher distribution
expenses than if Class A Shares had been purchased. In addition, investors who
intend to hold their shares for a significantly long time may not wish to bear
the higher ongoing-asset-based sales charges of Class B or Class C Shares,
irrespective of the fact that the CDSC that would apply to a redemption of
Class B Shares is reduced over time and is ultimately eliminated, and that the
CDSC that would apply to a redemption of Class C Shares is relatively short in
duration and small in amount.
Appropriate supervisory personnel within your organization must ensure that all
employees receiving investor inquiries about the purchase of shares of the
Funds advise the investor of the available pricing structures offered by the
Funds and the impact of choosing one method over another, including breakpoints
and the availability of letters of intent, combined purchases and cumulative
discounts. In some instances it may be appropriate for a supervisory person to
discuss a purchase with the investor.
These policies are effective immediately with respect to any order for the
purchase of shares of the Funds.

As principal underwriter of shares of common stock (the "Shares") of the
various Nuveen non-money market open-end mutual funds and any future such funds
(collectively, the "Funds"), we offer to make available Shares for purchase by
your customers on the following terms:
1. In all sales of Shares to the public you shall act as agent for your
customers, and in no transaction shall you have any authority to act as
agent for any Fund or for us. The customers in question are for all purposes
your customers and not customers of Xxxx Nuveen & Co. Incorporated. We
shall execute transactions for each of your customers only upon your
authorization, it being understood in all cases that (a) you are acting as
agent for the customer; (b) the transactions are without recourse against
you by the customer; (c) as between you and the customer, the customer will
have full beneficial ownership of the securities; (d) each transaction is
initiated solely upon the order of the customer; and (e) each transaction is
for the account of the customer and not for your account.
2. Orders received from you shall be accepted by us only at the public
offering price applicable to each order, as established by the then current
Prospectus of the appropriate Fund, subject to the discounts provided in
such Prospectus. Upon receipt from you of any order to purchase Shares we
shall confirm to you in writing or by wire to be followed by a confirmation
in writing, and we shall concurrently send to your customer a letter
confirming such order, together with a copy of the appropriate Fund's
current Prospectus. Additional instructions may be forwarded to you from
time to time. All orders are subject to acceptance or rejection by us in
our sole discretion.
3. Members of the general public, including your customers, may
purchase Shares only at the public offering price determined in the manner
described in the current Prospectus of the appropriate Fund. Shares will be
offered at a public offering price based upon the net asset value of such
Shares plus, with respect to certain class(es) of Shares, a sales charge
which, together with the amount of that sales charge to be retained by banks
acting as agent for their customers, is set forth in the Prospectus. You

class(es) of Shares for which such fees are applicable, as provided in the
applicable Prospectus, which distribution fee and/or service fee shall be
payable for such periods and at such intervals as are from time to time
specified by us. Your placement of an order for Shares after the date of any
notice of such amendment shall conclusively evidence your agreement to be
bound thereby. Reduced sales charges may also be available as a result of
a cumulative discount or pursuant to a letter of intent. Further
information as to such reduced sales charges, if any, is set forth in the
appropriate Fund Prospectus. You agree to advise us promptly as to the
amounts of any sales made by or though you to the public qualifying for
reduced sales charges.
4. By accepting this Agreement, you agree:
(a) That you will purchase Shares only from us, and only to cover
purchase orders already received from your customers;

Shares, attached hereto as Exibit A.

Exhibit A to Nuveen Mutual Funds
DEALER DISTRIBUTION AND
SHAREHOLDER SERVICING AGREEMENT
Policies and Procedures With Respect to
Sales of Multiple Classes of Funds
The Nuveen non-money market open-end mutual funds (the "Funds") have one or
more of the following classes of shares generally available to the public:
Class A Shares, which are normally subject to an up-front sales charge and a
service fee; Class B Shares, which are subject to an asset-based sales charge,
a service fee, and a declining contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC"); and
Class C Shares, which are subject to an asset-based sales charge, a service
fee, and a 12-month CDSC, it is important for an investor to choose the method
of purchasing shares which best suits his or her particular circumstances. To
assist investors in these decisions, Xxxx Nuveen & Co. Incorporated,
underwriter for the Nuveen Mutual Funds, has instituted the following policies
with respect to orders for Fund shares. These policies apply to each
Authorized Dealer which distributes Fund shares.
1. Purchase orders for a single purchaser equal to or exceeding
$1,000,000 should be placed only for Class A shares, unless such
purchase for Class B or Class C Shares has been reviewed and
approved by the Authorized Dealer's appropriate supervisor.
2. Any purchase order for less than $1,000,000 may be for Class A,
Class B or Class C Shares in light of the relevant facts and
circumstances, including:
a) the specific purchase order dollar amount;
b) the length of time the investor expects to hold his or her
Shares;
c) whether the investor expects to reinvest dividends; and
d) any other relevant circumstances such as the availability of
purchases under a letter of intent, a combined discount or a
cumulative discount, as described in the Prospectus for the
Fund, and any anticipated changes in the funds net asset value
per share.
There are instances when one method of purchasing Shares may be more
appropriate than the other. For example, investors who would qualify for a
significant discount from the maximum sales load on Class A Shares might
determine that payment of such a reduced up-front sales charge is preferable to
the payment of a higher ongoing distribution fee on Class B or Class C Shares.
On the other hand, investors who prefer not to pay an up-front sales charge may
wish to defer the sales charge by purchasing Class B or Class C Shares. Those
who plan to redeem their shares within 5 years might consider Class C Shares,
particularly if they do not expect to reinvest dividends in additional shares.
Note that, if an investor anticipates redeeming Class B Shares within a short
period of time such as one year, that investor may bear higher distribution
expenses than if Class A Shares had been purchased. In addition, investors who
intend to hold their shares for a significantly long time may not wish to bear
the higher ongoing-asset-based sales charges of Class B or Class C Shares,
irrespective of the fact that the CDSC that would apply to a redemption of
Class B Shares is reduced over time and is ultimately eliminated, and that the
CDSC that would apply to a redemption of Class C Shares is relatively short in
duration and small in amount.
Appropriate supervisory personnel within your organization must ensure that all
employees receiving investor inquiries about the purchase of shares of the
Funds advise the investor of the available pricing structures offered by the
Funds and the impact of choosing one method over another, including breakpoints
and the availability of letters of intent, combined purchases and cumulative
discounts. In some instances it may be appropriate for a supervisory person to
discuss a purchase with the investor.
These policies are effective immediately with respect to any order for the
purchase of shares of the Funds.

NUVEEN TAX-EXEMPT MUTUAL FUNDS
DISTRIBUTION AND SHAREHOLDER SERVICING AGREEMENT (Version for Bank-Affiliated
Broker-Dealers)
As principal underwriter of shares of common stock (the "Shares") of the
various Nuveen non-money market open-end mutual funds and any future such funds
(collectively, the "Funds"), we offer to make available Shares for purchase by
your customers on the following terms:
1. In all sales of Shares to the public you shall act as agent for your
customers, and in no transaction shall you have any authority to act as
agent for any Fund or for us. The customers in question are for all
purposes your customers and not customers of Xxxx Nuveen & Co.
Incorporated. We shall execute transactions for each of your customers
only upon your authorization, it being understood in all cases that (a)
you are acting as agent for the customer; (b) the transactions are without
recourse against you by the customer; (c) as between you and the customer,
the customer will have full beneficial ownership of the securities; (d)
each transaction is initiated solely upon the order of the customer; and
(e) each transaction is for the account of the customer and not for your
account.
2. Orders received from you shall be accepted by us only at the public
offering price applicable to each order, as established by the then
current Prospectus of the appropriate Fund, subject to the discounts
provided in such Prospectus. Upon receipt from you of any order to
purchase Shares we shall confirm to you in writing or by wire to be
followed by a confirmation in writing, and we shall concurrently send to
your customer a letter confirming such order, together with a copy of the
appropriate Fund's current Prospectus. Additional instructions may be
forwarded to you from time to time. All orders are subject to acceptance
or rejection by us in our sole discretion.
3. Members of the general public, including your customers, may purchase
Shares only at the public offering price determined in the manner
described in the current Prospectus of the appropriate Fund. Shares will
be offered at a public offering price based upon the net asset value of
such Shares plus, with respect to certain class(es) of Shares, a sales
charge which, together with the amount of that sales charge to be retained
by banks or bank-affiliated broker-dealers acting as agent for their
customers, is set forth in the Prospectus. You may receive a distribution
fee and/or a service fee with respect to certain class(es) of Shares for
which such fees are applicable, as provided in the applicable Prospectus,
which distribution fee and/or service fee shall be payable for such
periods and at such intervals as are from time to time specified by us.
Your placement of an order for Shares after the date of any notice of such
amendment shall conclusively evidence your agreement to be bound thereby.
Reduced sales charges may also be available as a result of a cumulative
discount or pursuant to a letter of intent. Further information as to
such reduced sales charges, if any, is set forth in the appropriate Fund
Prospectus. You agree to advise us promptly as to the amounts of any
sales made by or though you to the public qualifying for reduced sales
charges.
4. By accepting this Agreement, you agree:
(a) That you will purchase Shares only from us, and only to cover
purchase orders already received from your customers;
(b) That you will not withhold placing with us orders received from
your customers so as to profit yourself as a result of such withholding;
and
(c) That, with respect to the sale of Shares of Funds that offer
multiple classes of Shares, you will comply with the terms of the
Policies and Procedures with Respect to Sales of Multiple Classes of
Shares, attached hereto as Exhibit A.
5. We will not accept from you any conditional orders for Shares.
6. Payment for Shares ordered from us shall be in New York clearing house
funds and must be received by the Funds' agent, Shareholder Services, Inc.,
P. O. Xxx 0000, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000-0000, within three business days

reserve the right, without notice, forthwith to cancel the sale or, at our
option, to cause the Fund to redeem the Shares ordered, in which case we
may hold you responsible for any loss, including loss of profit, suffered
by us as result of your or your customer's failure to make such payment.
If any Shares confirmed to you or your customer under the terms of this
agreement are repurchased by the issuing Fund or by us as agent for the
Fund, or are tendered for repurchase, within seven business days after the
date of our confirmation of the original purchase order, you shall promptly
refund to us the full discount, commission, or other concession, if any,
allowed or paid to you on such Shares.
7. Shares sold hereunder shall be available in book-entry form on the books
of Shareholder Services, Inc. unless other instructions have been given.
8. No person is authorized to make any representations concerning Shares or
any Fund except those contained in the applicable current Prospectus and
printed information issued by the appropriate Fund or by us as information
supplemental to such Prospectus. You agree that you will not offer or sell
any Shares except under circumstances that will result in compliance with

which is inconsistent in any respect with the information contained in
the then current Prospectus or cause any advertisement to be published in
any newspaper or posted in any public place without our consent and the
consent of the appropriate Fund. You shall be responsible for any
required filing of such advertising.
9. All sales will be made subject to our receipt of Shares from the
appropriate Fund. We reserve the right, in our discretion, without
notice, to modify, suspend or withdraw entirely the offering of any
Shares, and upon notice to change the price, sales charge, or dealer
discount or to modify, cancel or change the terms of this agreement.
10. Your acceptance of this agreement constitutes a representation that you

of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. and agree to
comply with all state and Federal laws, rules and regulations applicable
to transactions hereunder and with the Rules of Fair Practice of the NASD,

agree that you will not offer to sell Shares in any state or other
