AGREEMENT made as of the 17th day of April, 1995 by and between Xxxx Xxxxxx
InterCapital Inc., a Delaware corporation (herein referred to as
"InterCapital"), and Xxxx Xxxxxx Services Company Inc., a Delaware corporation
(herein referred to as "DWS").
WHEREAS, InterCapital has entered into separate agreements (each such
agreement being herein referred to as an "Investment Management Agreement") with
certain investment companies as set forth on Schedule A (each such investment
company being herein referred to as a "Fund" and, collectively, as the "Funds")
pursuant to which InterCapital is to perform, or supervise the performance of,
among other services, administrative services for the Funds (and, in the case of
Funds with multiple portfolios, the Series or Portfolios of the Funds (such
Series and Portfolio being herein individually referred to as "a Series" and,
collectively, as "the Series"));
WHEREAS, InterCapital desires to retain DWS to perform the administrative
services as described below; and
WHEREAS, DWS desires to be retained by InterCapital to perform such
administrative services:
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements of
the parties hereto as herein set forth, the parties covenant and agree as
follows:
1. DWS agrees to provide administrative services to each Fund as
hereinafter set forth. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, DWS
shall (i) administer the Fund's business affairs and supervise the overall
day-to-day operations of the Fund (other than rendering investment advice); (ii)
provide the Fund with full administrative services, including the maintenance of
certain books and records, such as journals, ledger accounts and other records
required under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), the
notification to the Fund and InterCapital of available funds for investment, the
reconciliation of account information and balances among the Fund's custodian,
transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent and InterCapital, and the
calculation of the net asset value of the Fund's shares; (iii) provide the Fund
with the services of persons competent to perform such supervisory,
administrative and clerical functions as are necessary to provide effective
operation of the Fund; (iv) oversee the performance of administrative and
professional services rendered to the Fund by others, including its custodian,
transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent, as well as accounting, auditing
and other services; (v) provide the Fund with adequate general office space and
facilities; (vi) assist in the preparation and the printing of the periodic
updating of the Fund's registration statement and prospectus (and, in the case
of an open-end Fund, the statement of additional information), tax returns,
proxy statements, and reports to its shareholders and the Securities and
Exchange Commission; and (vii) monitor the compliance of the Fund's investment
policies and restrictions.
In the event that InterCapital enters into an Investment Management
Agreement with another investment company, and wishes to retain DWS to perform
administrative services hereunder, it shall notify DWS in writing. If DWS is
willing to render such services, it shall notify InterCapital in writing,
whereupon such other Fund shall become a Fund as defined herein.
2. DWS shall, at its own expense, maintain such staff and employ or retain
such personnel and consult with such other persons as it shall from time to time
determine to be necessary or useful to the performance of its obligations under
this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the staff and
personnel of DWS shall be deemed to include officers of DWS and persons employed
or otherwise retained by DWS (including officers and employees of InterCapital,
with the consent of InterCapital) to furnish services, statistical and other
factual data, information with respect to technical and scientific developments,
and such other information, advice and assistance as DWS may desire. DWS shall
maintain each Fund's records and books of account (other than those maintained
by the Fund's transfer agent, registrar, custodian and other agencies). All such
books and records so maintained shall be the property of the Fund and, upon
request therefor, DWS shall surrender to InterCapital or to the Fund such of the
books and records so requested.
3. InterCapital will, from time to time, furnish or otherwise make
available to DWS such financial reports, proxy statements and other information
relating to the business and affairs of the Fund as DWS may reasonably require
in order to discharge its duties and obligations to the Fund under this Agree-
Y10002
2
ment or to comply with any applicable law and regulation or request of the Board
of Directors/Trustees of the Fund.
4. For the services to be rendered, the facilities furnished, and the
expenses assumed by DWS, InterCapital shall pay to DWS monthly compensation
calculated daily (in the case of an open-end Fund) or weekly (in the case of a
closed-end Fund) by applying the annual rate or rates set forth on Schedule B to
the net assets of each Fund. Except as hereinafter set forth, (i) in the case of
an open-end Fund, compensation under this Agreement shall be calculated by
applying 1/365th of the annual rate or rates to the Fund's or the Series' daily
net assets determined as of the close of business on that day or the last
previous business day and (ii) in the case of a closed-end Fund, compensation
under this Agreement shall be calculated by applying the annual rate or rates to
the Fund's average weekly net assets determined as of the close of the last
business day of each week. If this Agreement becomes effective subsequent to the
first day of a month or shall terminate before the last day of a month,
compensation for that part of the month this Agreement is in effect shall be
prorated in a manner consistent with the calculation of the fees as set forth on
Schedule B. Subject to the provisions of paragraph 5 hereof, payment of DWS'
compensation for the preceding month shall be made as promptly as possible after
completion of the computations contemplated by paragraph 5 hereof.
5. In the event the operating expenses of any open-end Fund and/or any
Series thereof, or of InterCapital Income Securities Inc., including amounts
payable to InterCapital pursuant to the Investment Management Agreement, for any
fiscal year ending on a date on which this Agreement is in effect, exceed the
expense limitations applicable to the Fund and/or any Series thereof imposed by
state securities laws or regulations thereunder, as such limitations may be
raised or lowered from time to time, or, in the case of InterCapital Income
Securities Inc. or Xxxx Xxxxxx Variable Investment Series or any Series thereof,
the expense limitation specified in the Fund's Investment Management Agreement,
the fee payable hereunder shall be reduced on a pro rata basis in the same
proportion as the fee payable by the Fund under the Investment Management
Agreement is reduced.
6. DWS shall bear the cost of rendering the administrative services to be
performed by it under this Agreement, and shall, at its own expense, pay the
compensation of the officers and employees, if any, of the Fund employed by DWS,
and such clerical help and bookkeeping services as DWS shall reasonably require
in performing its duties hereunder.
7. DWS will use its best efforts in the performance of administrative
activities on behalf of each Fund, but in the absence of willful misfeasance,
bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of its obligations hereunder,
DWS shall not be liable to the Fund or any of its investors for any error of
judgment or mistake of law or for any act or omission by DWS or for any losses
sustained by the Fund or its investors. It is understood that, subject to the
terms and conditions of the Investment Management Agreement between each Fund
and InterCapital, InterCapital shall retain ultimate responsibility for all
services to be performed hereunder by DWS. DWS shall indemnify InterCapital and
hold it harmless from any liability that InterCapital may incur arising out of
any act or failure to act by DWS in carrying out its responsibilities hereunder.
8. It is understood that any of the shareholders, Directors/Trustees,
officers and employees of the Fund may be a shareholder, director, officer or
employee of, or be otherwise interested in, DWS, and in any person controlling,
controlled by or under common control with DWS, and that DWS and any person
controlling, controlled by or under common control with DWS may have an interest
in the Fund. It is also understood that DWS and any affiliated persons thereof
or any persons controlling, controlled by or under common control with DWS have
and may have advisory, management, administration service or other contracts
with other organizations and persons, and may have other interests and
businesses, and further may purchase, sell or trade any securities or
commodities for their own accounts or for the account of others for whom they
may be acting.
9. This Agreement shall continue until April 30, 1995, and thereafter shall
continue automatically for successive periods of one year unless terminated by
either party by written notice delivered to the other party within 30 days of
the expiration of the then-existing period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this
Agreement may be terminated at any time, by either party on 30 days' written
notice delivered to the
2

other party. In the event that the Investment Management Agreement between any
Fund and InterCapital is terminated, this Agreement will automatically terminate
with respect to such Fund.
10. This Agreement may be amended or modified by the parties in any manner
by written agreement executed by each of the parties hereto.
11. This Agreement may be assigned by either party with the written consent
of the other party.
12. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with
the laws of the State of New York.
