b. PROMOTION SUPPORT. Each Fund shall furnish to Distributor for use in

shall also furnish to Distributor copies of its reports to its shareholders
and such additional information regarding said Fund's financial condition
as Distributor may reasonably request. Any and all representations,
statements and solicitations respecting a Fund's shares made in
advertisements, sales literature and in any other manner whatsoever shall
be limited to and conform in all respects to the information provided
hereunder.
c. REGULATORY COMPLIANCE. Each Fund shall furnish to Distributor copies of its
current form of prospectus, as filed with the SEC, in such quantity as
Distributor may reasonably request from time to time, and authorizes

Fund's shares. All such sales shall be initiated by offer of, and conducted
in accordance with, such prospectus and all of the provisions of the
Securities Act of 1933, the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act") and
all the rules and regulations thereunder. Distributor shall furnish
applicable federal and state regulatory authorities with any information or
reports related to its services under this Agreement which such authorities
