Section 1.  Appointment of the Distributor

The Fund hereby appoints the Distributor, jointly with Prudential Investment Management Services LLC (PIMS), as a principal underwriter and distributor of the Shares of the Fund to sell Shares to the public on behalf of the Fund and the Distributor hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to act hereunder.  The Fund hereby agrees during the term of this Agreement to sell Shares of the Fund through the Distributor on the terms and conditions set forth below.

Section 2.  Exclusive Nature of Duties

The Distributor, jointly with PIMS, shall be the exclusive representative of the Fund to act as principal underwriter and distributor of the Fund’s Shares, except that:

2.1 The exclusive rights granted to the Distributor to sell Shares of the Fund shall not apply to Shares of the Fund issued in connection with the merger or consolidation of any other investment company or personal holding company with the Fund or the acquisition by purchase or otherwise of all (or substantially all) the assets or the outstanding shares of any such company by the Fund.

2.2 Such exclusive rights shall not apply to Shares issued by the Fund pursuant to reinvestment of dividends or capital gains distributions or through the exercise of any conversion feature or exchange privilege.

3.1 The Distributor shall have the right to buy from the Fund on behalf of investors the Shares needed, but not more than the Shares needed (except for clerical errors in transmission) to fill unconditional orders for Shares placed with the Distributor by investors or registered and qualified securities dealers and other financial institutions (selected dealers).

3.2 The Shares shall be sold by the Distributor on behalf of the Fund and delivered by the Distributor or selected dealers, as described in Section 6.4 hereof, to investors at the offering price as set forth in the Prospectus.

3.3 The Fund shall have the right to suspend the sale of any or all classes and/or series of its Shares at times when (1) redemption is suspended pursuant to the conditions in Section 4.3 hereof or (2) the Fund’s officers in their judgment deem that such action is warranted for any reason, including, without limitation, due to market, economic or political conditions.  The Fund shall also have the right to suspend the sale of any or all classes and/or series of its Shares if a banking moratorium shall have been declared by federal or New Jersey authorities.

3.4 The Fund, or any agent of the Fund designated in writing by the Fund, shall be promptly advised of all purchase orders for Shares received by the Distributor.  Any order may be rejected by the Fund.  The Fund (or its agent) will confirm orders upon their receipt, will make appropriate book entries and upon receipt by the Fund (or its agent) of payment therefor, will deliver deposit receipts for such Shares pursuant to the instructions of the Distributor.  Payment shall be made to the Fund in New York Clearing House funds or federal funds.  The Distributor agrees to cause such payment and such instructions to be delivered promptly to the Fund (or its agent).

Section 4.  Repurchase or Redemption of Shares by the Fund

4.1 Any of the outstanding Shares may be tendered for redemption at any time, and the Fund agrees to repurchase or redeem the Shares so tendered in accordance with its Declaration of Trust as amended from time to time, and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Prospectus.  The price to be paid to redeem or repurchase the Shares shall be equal to the net asset value determined as set forth in the Prospectus.  All payments by the Fund hereunder shall be made in the manner set forth in Section 4.2 below.

4.2 The Fund shall pay the total amount of the redemption price as defined in the above paragraph pursuant to the instructions of the Distributor on or before the seventh day subsequent to its having received the notice of redemption in proper form.  The proceeds of any redemption of Shares shall be paid by the Fund as follows:  (i) in the case of Shares subject to a contingent deferred sales charge, any applicable contingent deferred sales charge shall be paid to the Distributor, and the balance shall be paid to or for the account of the redeeming shareholder, in each case in accordance with applicable provisions of the Prospectus and (ii) in the case of all other Shares, proceeds shall be paid to or for the account of the redeeming shareholder, in each case in accordance with applicable provisions of the Prospectus.

4.3 Redemption of any class and/or series of Shares or payment may be suspended at times when the New York Stock Exchange is closed for other than customary weekends and holidays, when trading on said Exchange is restricted, when an emergency exists as a result of which disposal by the Fund of securities owned by it is not reasonably practicable or it is not reasonably practicable for the Fund fairly to determine the value of its net assets, or during any other period when the Securities and Exchange Commission, by order, so permits.

Section 5.  Duties of the Fund

5.1 Subject to the possible suspension of the sale of Shares and ability to reject orders as provided herein, the Fund agrees to sell its Shares so long as it has Shares of the respective class and/or series available.

5.2 The Fund shall furnish the Distributor with copies of all information, financial statements and other papers which the Distributor may reasonably request for use in connection with the distribution of Shares, and this shall include one certified copy, upon request by the Distributor, of all financial statements prepared for the Fund by independent public accountants.  The Fund shall make available to the Distributor such number of copies of its Prospectus and annual and interim reports, as the Distributor shall reasonably request.

2

5.3 The Fund shall take, from time to time, but subject to the necessary approval of the Board and the shareholders, all necessary action to register a sufficient number of Shares under the Securities Act such that there will be available for sale such number of Shares as the Distributor reasonably may expect to sell.  The Fund agrees to file from time to time such amendments, reports and other documents as may be necessary in order that there will be no untrue statement of a material fact in the Registration Statement, or necessary in order that there will be no omission to state a material fact in the Registration Statement which omission would make the statements therein misleading.

5.4 The Fund shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to notify such states as the Distributor and the Fund may approve of its intention to sell any appropriate number of its Shares; provided that the Fund shall not be required to amend its Declaration of Trust or By-Laws to comply with the laws of any state, to maintain an office in any state, to change the terms of the offering of its Shares in any state from the terms set forth in its Registration Statement, to qualify as a foreign corporation in any state or to consent to service of process in any state other than with respect to claims arising out of the offering of its Shares.  Any such notification may be withheld, terminated or withdrawn by the Fund at any time in its discretion.  As provided in Section 9 hereof, the expense of notification and maintenance of notification shall be borne by the Fund.  The Distributor shall furnish such information and other material relating to its affairs and activities as may be required by the Fund in connection with such notifications.

Section 6.  Duties of the Distributor

6.1 The Distributor shall use its best efforts to effect sales of Shares, but shall not be obligated to sell any specific number of Shares.  Sales of the Shares shall be on the terms described in the Prospectus.  The Distributor may enter into like arrangements with other investment companies.  The Distributor shall compensate the selected dealers as set forth in the Prospectus.

6.2 In selling the Shares, the Distributor shall comply with the requirements of all federal and state laws relating to the sale of such securities.  Neither the Distributor nor any selected dealer nor any other person is authorized by the Fund to give any information or to make any representations, other than those contained in the Registration Statement or Prospectus and any sales literature approved by appropriate officers of the Fund.

6.3 The Distributor shall adopt and follow procedures for the prompt confirmation of sales to investors and selected dealers, the collection of amounts payable by investors and selected dealers on such sales and the cancellation of unsettled transactions, as may be necessary to comply with the requirements of Securities Exchange Act Rule 10b-10 and the rules of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (NASD).

6.4 The Distributor shall have the right to enter into selected dealer agreements with registered and qualified securities dealers and other financial institutions of its choice for the sale of Shares, provided that the Fund shall approve the forms of such agreements.  Within the United States, the Distributor shall offer and sell Shares only to such selected dealers as are members in good standing of the NASD or are institutions exempt from registration under applicable federal securities laws.  Shares sold to selected dealers shall be for resale by such dealers only at the offering price determined as set forth in the Prospectus.

Section 7.  Payments to the Distributor

7.1 With respect to classes and/or series of Shares which impose a front-end sales charge, the Distributor shall receive and may retain any portion of any front-end sales charge which is imposed on such sales and not reallocated to selected dealers as set forth in the Prospectus, subject to the limitations of Rule 2830 of the Conduct Rules of the NASD.  Payment of these amounts to the Distributor is not contingent upon the adoption or continuation of any applicable Plans.

7.2 With respect to classes and/or series of Shares which impose a contingent deferred sales charge, the Distributor shall receive and may retain any contingent deferred sales charge which is imposed on such sales as set forth in the Prospectus, subject to the limitations of Rule 2830 of the Conduct Rules of the NASD.  Payment of these amounts to the Distributor is not contingent upon the adoption or continuation of any Plan.

Section 8.  Payment of the Distributor under the Plan

8.1 The Fund shall pay to the Distributor, as compensation for services under any Plans adopted by the Fund and this Agreement, a distribution and service fee with respect to the Fund’s classes and/or series of Shares as described in each of the Fund’s respective Plans and this Agreement.

3

8.2 So long as a Plan or any amendment thereto is in effect, the Distributor shall periodically, but no les often than monthly, inform the Board of the commissions and account servicing fees with respect to the relevant class and/or series of Shares to be paid by the Distributor to account executives of the Distributor and to broker-dealers, financial institutions and investment advisers which have dealer agreements with the Distributor.  So long as a Plan (or any amendment thereto) is in effect, at the request of the Board or any agent or representative of the Fund, the Distributor shall provide such additional information as may reasonably be requested concerning the activities of the Distributor hereunder and the costs incurred in performing such activities with respect to the relevant class and/or series of Shares.

Section 9.  Allocation of Expenses

The Fund shall bear all costs and expenses of the continuous offering of its Shares (except for those costs and expenses borne by the Distributor pursuant to a Plan and subject to the requirements of Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act), including fees and disbursements of its counsel and auditors, in connection with the preparation and filing of any required Registration Statements and/or Prospectuses under the Investment Company Act or the Securities Act, and all amendments and supplements thereto, and preparing and mailing annual and periodic reports and proxy materials to shareholders (including but not limited to the expense of setting in type any such Registration Statements, Prospectuses, annual or periodic reports or proxy materials).  The Fund shall also bear the cost of expenses of making notice filings for the Shares for sale, and, if necessary or advisable in connection therewith, of qualifying the Fund as a broker or dealer, in such states of the United States or other jurisdictions as shall be selected by the Fund and the Distributor pursuant to Section 5.4 hereof and the cost and expense payable to each such state for continuing notification therein until the Fund decides to discontinue such notification pursuant to Section 5.4 hereof.  As set forth in Section 8 above, the Fund shall also bear the expenses it assumes pursuant to any Plan, so long as such Plan is in effect.

4
