3. Wire Transfer Operating Guidelines/Articles 4A of the Uniform

Commercial Code

3.1 The Bank is authorized to promptly debit the appropriate

Transfer Agent account(s) upon the receipt of a payment order in

compliance with the selected security procedure (the "Security

Procedure") chosen for funds transfer and in the amount of money that

the Bank has been instructed to transfer. The Bank shall execute

payment orders in compliance with the Security Procedure and with the

Transfer Agent's instructions on the execution date provided that such

payment order is received by the customary deadline for processing such

a request, unless the payment order specifies a later time. All payment

orders and communications received after this time frame will be deemed

to have been received the next business day.

3.2 The Transfer Agent acknowledges that the Security Procedure it

has designated on the Transfer Agent Selection Form was selected by the

Transfer Agent from security procedures offered by the Bank. The

Transfer Agent shall restrict access to confidential information

relating to the Security Procedure to authorized persons as

communicated to the Bank in writing. The Transfer Agent must notify the

Bank immediately if it has reason to believe unauthorized persons may

have obtained access to such information or of any change in the

Transfer Agent's authorized personnel. The Bank shall verify the

authenticity of all such instructions according to the Security

Procedure.

3.3 The Bank shall process all payment orders on the basis of the

account number contained in the payment order. In the event of a

discrepancy between any name indicated on the payment order and the

account number, the account number shall take precedence and govern.

3.4 When a Transfer Agent initiates or receives Automated Clearing

House ("ACH") credit and debit entries pursuant to these guidelines and

the rules of the National Automated Clearing House Association and the

New England Clearing House Association, the Bank will act as an

Originating Depository Financial Institution and/or receiving

Depository Financial Institution, as the case may be, with respect to

such entries. Credits given by the Bank with respect to an ACH credit

entry are provisional until the Bank receives final settlement for such

entry from the Federal Reserve Bank. If the Bank does not receive such

final settlement, the Transfer Agent agrees that the Bank shall receive

a refund of the amount credited to the Transfer Agent in connection

with such entry, and the party making payment to the Transfer Agent via

such entry shall not be deemed to have paid the amount of the entry.

3.5 The Bank reserves the right to decline to process or delay the

processing of a payment order which (a) is in excess of the collected

balance in the account to be charged at the time of the Bank's receipt

of such payment order, or (b) if the Bank, in good faith, is unable to

satisfy itself that the transaction has been properly authorized.

3.6 The Bank shall use reasonable efforts to act on all authorized

requests to cancel or amend payment orders received if requests are

received in a timely manner affording the Bank reasonable opportunity

to act. However, the Bank assumes no liability if the request for

amendment or cancellation cannot be satisfied.

3.7 The Bank shall assume no responsibility for failure to detect

any erroneous payment order provided that the Bank complies with the

payment order instructions as received and the Bank complies with the

Security Procedure. The Security Procedure is established for the

purpose of authenticating payment orders only and not for the detection

of errors in payment orders.

3.8 The Bank shall assume no responsibility for lost interest with

respect to the retransfer Agentable amount of any unauthorized payment

order unless the Bank is notified of the unauthorized payment order

within thirty (30) days of notification by the Bank of the acceptance

of such payment order. In no event (including failure to execute a

payment order) shall the Bank be liable for special, indirect or

consequential damages, even if advised of the possibility of such

damages.

3.9 Confirmation of Bank's execution of payment orders shall

ordinarily be provided within 24 hours notice of which may be delivered

through the Bank's proprietary information systems, or by facsimile or

call-back. Client must report any objections to the execution of an

order within 30 days.

4. Data Access and Proprietary Information

screen formats, report formats, interactive design techniques, and

other information furnished to the Transfer Agent by the Bank are

provided solely in connection with the services rendered under this

Agreement and constitute copyrighted trade secrets or proprietary

Transfer Agent's computers, or (ii) solely from equipment at

the locations agreed to between the Transfer Agent and the

Bank and (iii) in accordance with the Bank's applicable user

documentation;

(b) to refrain from copying or duplicating in any way

(other than in the normal course of performing processing on

the Transfer Agent's computers) any part of any Proprietary

Information;

programs, data or other information not owned by the Transfer

Agent, and if such access is accidentally obtained, to respect

and safeguard the same Proprietary Information;

(d) to refrain from causing or allowing proprietary

information transmitted from the Bank's computer to the

Transfer Agent's terminal to be retransmitted to any other

computer terminal or other device except as expressly

permitted by the Bank, such permission not to be unreasonably

withheld;

(e) that the Transfer Agent shall have access only to

those authorized transactions as agreed to between the

Transfer Agent and the Bank; and

(f) to honor reasonable written requests made by the Bank

to protect at the Bank's expense the rights of the Bank in

Proprietary Information at common law and under

applicable statutes.

their obligations pursuant to this Section 4.

charges, counsel fees, payments, expenses and liability arising out of

order or other determination or ruling by any federal agency

or any state with respect to the offer or sale of such Shares

in such state.

5.2 At any time the Bank may apply to any officer of the Transfer

Agent for instructions, and may consult with legal counsel with respect

to any matter arising in connection with the services to be performed

by the Bank under this Agreement, and the Bank and its Agents or

subcontractors shall not be liable and shall be indemnified by the

Transfer Agent for any action taken or omitted by it in reliance upon

such instructions or upon the opinion of such counsel.

The Bank, its agents and subcontractors shall be protected and

indemnified in acting upon any paper or document furnished by or on

are reasonably believed to bear the proper manual or facsimile

signatures of the officers of the Transfer Agent, and the proper

countersignature of the Transfer Agent or any former transfer agent or

Section 5 shall apply, upon the assertion of a claim for which the

Transfer Agent may be required to indemnify the Bank, the Bank shall

promptly notify the Transfer Agent of such assertion, and shall keep

the Transfer Agent advised with respect to all developments concerning

with the Bank in the defense of such claim or to defend against said

case confess any claim or make any compromise in any case in which the

Transfer Agent may be required to indemnify the Bank except with the

Transfer Agent's prior written consent.

6. Standard of Care

6.1 The Bank shall at all times act in good faith and agrees to

use its best efforts within reasonable limits to insure the accuracy of

all services performed under this Agreement, but assumes no

responsibility and shall not be liable for loss or damage due to errors

unless said errors are caused by its negligence, bad faith, or willful

misconduct or that of its employees.

6.2 The Bank shall work with the Transfer Agent to ensure that a

Fund is made whole by the responsible party for any material losses or

damages resulting from errors, material unreconciled items,

or its agents or subcontractors, or that of their employees. Neither

the Bank, its agents or subcontractors, nor the Transfer Agent may
